Whats Transition Town Totnes?
Totnes is the world’s first Transition Town. Transition Town Totnes (TTT) is a community process by which we, the residents of Totnes and its surrounding parishes, are taking action to make the transition from being oil-dependent and vulnerable, to a more secure, enjoyable and re-localised future, whilst maintaining and enhancing the quality of life we enjoy in our special part of the world. Our work is based a simple recognition that life with lower energy consumption is inevitable, and it’s better to plan for that than be taken by surprise. There are a number of reasons why we think making this transition is necessary but essentially, we are exploring and developing ways to regain control of our own affairs. We are strengthening our communities and taking responsibility for every aspect of our lives. While our task may be serious, our approach is fun and welcoming. Whether you are a doer or a thinker, a farmer or a banker, a mum or a dad, an elder or a nipper, there are plenty of way
