As humanity faces the challenges of climate change, peak oil and economic upheaval, solutions will require strategies of local resilience. "Transition" is a movement that began in England in 2006 to address these challenges and support transformation at a local, even neighborhood level. Today over 400 Transition Initiatives around the world are preparing for future shocks and shifts by unleashing creativity and re-skilling themselves while building community and having fun. Members of the newly formed Brooklyn Transition Initiating Group will introduce us to this idea.
Sunday Platforms are a long-standing tradition within Ethical Culture that explore the personal and social aspects of living an ethical life and the major ethical issues of our times.
