The Talk

Rob spoke with enormous passion and enthusiasm about Transition Network – a movement of communities coming together since 2005 to reimagine and rebuild our world. Community-led Transition groups are working for a low-carbon, socially just future with resilient communities, more active participation in society, and a caring culture focused on supporting each other.

Rob told many totally different stories about how groups of people have kicked off projects that benefit and involve their communities. I strongly recommend that you watch the video on YouTube – it is the only way to understand the genuinely innovative mind of this man and what happens when he gets involved!
