SUMMARY:Training for Transition: Seattle
DESCRIPTION:The Transition movement is a set of inspiring ideas for cr
 eating an attractive and enticing vision of how our communities could 
 be. It starts with the recognition that the world is facing both clima
 te change and oil depletion. These twin crises cannot be solved separa
 tely, and they cannot be solved with technological miracles, but only 
 by lessening our dependence on fossil fuels. This doesn't mean a bleak
 er future. The heart of Transition is the belief that if we engage wit
 h enough imagination and ingenuity to unlock the collective genius of 
 the community, we can choose a future that is even better than the pre
 sent.\n\nThere are hundreds of communities throughout the world adopti
 ng the transition model. Learn how you can be part of the solution.\n\
 nWhat You Will Learn\nThis training will follow the transition model i
