17 February 2020

Tonight I went to our Transition Town meeting. I founded the Transition group with my friend Paul four years ago. We had a presentation from a CWaC councillor about their climate plan. I found it pretty depressing. I know councils have no money but the plan wasn't anywhere near as ambitious as I'd hoped and won't meet the Paris Accords. Also heard some nonsense about technofixes.

What we need is community energy - solar, wind and hydro - retrofitting of homes with energy efficiency, better waste reduction, and recycling and a big shift to walking, cycling, and public transport - for a start! Good to see the TN crew though.
