Transition Ohio

Community Resilience, Self-Reliance, Renewable Energy & Cooperation

Greetings!

Hello Fellow Agents of Change!

Thank you for all you are doing in your lives and communities.

We can use this social networking site to support and learn from each other while further developing our ability to collaborate at-distance, i.e. adapt to post-oil reailities now!

We can pursue personal lifestyle change, preparedness, adaptation and community resilience without becoming an Official Transition Initiative.

But the Transition Model is a great tool which provides an adaptable framework for building clear interdependent collaborative relationships; whether we become official or not.

Here are some links that may be prove helpful on this adventure into new territory:
Transition Ohio info and background.

Navigation Tips.

Transition related publications,
videos, etc.

Transition United States Ning

Transition US, home to the official American hub for the International Transition Network.

The Transition Handbook

Primer.

Official Transition criteria and the application form.

Future of Site

Greetings members from Ohio,

Transition Ohio has moved to a new location: If you desire to continue your membership in the Transition Social Network, please join http://transitionus.ning.com When you join, I will greet you and direct you to the new location.

If you created a local GROUP on this site, you will need to re-create your local group using this link: http://transitionus.ning.com/groups/group/new

It is important that you do this right away. This site will be deleted any day now.

If you have already taken this step, please visit the original site and encourage your neighbors to follow your example.

Let me know when you have questions.
