Profile Information

Are you aware that your membership will not be approved unless you complete your profile questions?: yup!

How are you currently involved in Transition to a post-petroleum lifestlyle?: We are beginning to form a core steering committee here in Goshen IN.

How do you identify with the Transition movement? Why are you interested?: I've been following Transition for a while. We are now starting to form a group here in Goshen.
My lens of the world has changed over the past few years as I have learned more about peak oil, climate change and the like.
I want to help encourage all of the great things Goshen is already doing.

How can you help the growth / acceptance / vitality of local Transition efforts? What can YOU teach us? What can your Group teach us?: I hope that as we learn how to work as a group and build a movement, we can then teach others what we have learned. Hopefully surrounding communities take notice and get involved.

Can you give 2-5 hours a month in Bloomington to manifest real projects and will you show up?: No. Sorry. I live in Goshen, but plan on working at least that much to get the steering group rolling. :)
