Our Journey Home: The Power of Community

The Journey Home -- The Exponential Power of Community 		Dumbbell Planning Versus Integrated Community Planning [The] Evisceration of Rural America
Jennifer Gray, a pioneer in the Transition Initiative in the UK and cofounder of Transition US, describes it as “a community-led response to the twin crises of peak oil and climate change. It’s … positive, pro-active [and] engages the whole community in building resilience into their world.”
http://www.wordpress.peakmoment.tv/conversations/?p=254		 Sharing highlights from The Transition Handbook by founder Rob Hopkins, she elaborates on a flexible twelve-step process to empower community organizers in unleashing the creative genius of their community and building an Energy Descent Action Plan. One innovative aspect is backcasting: envisioning one’s community in 20 years, and then designing steps to get from here to there.

Your site is informative, but needs proofreading. Also, knowing you probably have a micro-budget to work with, I understand your need for a free website, I suggest you use www.weebly.com. Weebly doesn't display advertisements in user sites, yet it's free, because it's underwritten by corporate benefactors, hence the lack of ads. I have a site at: http://sleepyhollowjewelry.weebly.com/.

jimmiller5418 Just say NO to high speed rail service 0 Apr 20 2009, 9:21 PM EDT by jimmiller5418
Thread started: Apr 20 2009, 9:21 PM EDT  Watch
I am dead against highspeed rail service:

1. It only works serving major cities.
2. The tracks do not stay straight and level and eventually the trains have to slow way down.
3. An elevated tracked air cushion vehicle would do better.
4. A Maglev method would do better.
5. Let's work on reducing the number trip miles traveled by vehicles powered excluisvely by internal comustion engines.
6. Start forming mini-towns around (even in urban and suburban areas) the idea where "We work where we live, and we live where we work". This is the start of the "small is good" approach to city, county and state planning "as if people mattered" as against planning "as if only vehicles, the automakers and the oil companies mattered."
7. Support startup worker cooperative whose members live in the same ecovillage, work various jobs and run various businesses in this democratic worker community. See: http://masallp.wetpaint.com.
