Transitioning to a Low-Carbon Future

Introduction to the Transition Model

With The South Brooklyn Initiating

Group Ethical Culture Platform 11:00AM - 12:30PM

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 to bring light and heat to matters of ethical concern in a formal setting. Every Sunday, platforms examine major ethical issues and explore the personal and social aspects of living an ethical life.**
