March 2017 – Transition Newsletter

By Mike Grenville 2nd March 2017

Find out how our ten years (wow!) of Transition shaped inspiration began. Also, Richard Heinberg (who spoke at our first conference) underlines our continued relevance; Dominican TV debates de-growth and Farnham’s Repair Cafe repairs and re-creates. We launch more language translations for our support materials plus reflections on a play called ‘Oil’ and a new book on responding to the advertising industry.


HAPPY BIRTHMONTH
10 years of Transition Network: the early days…
As Transition Network turns ten, Rob Hopkins looks back to when it all began.

THINKING ALOUD

“Transition is more important than ever in a world of Donald Trump”, Richard Heinberg tells us.

DOING STUFF

‘Le Guide Essentiel de la Transition‘.
Nous sommes ravis d’annoncer la publication de la version française du ‘Le Guide Essentiel de la Transition‘.

PLAY REVIEW

Hilary Jennings interviews playwright Ella Hickson about her play ‘Oil’.
A central concern was a feeling that our freedom in the West was based on something that was finite.

BOOK REVIEW

Advertising Shits In Your Head
Rob Hopkins reviews a new book which argues that the best strategy for dealing with the advertising industry is to take it on headfirst.
