Caroline Lucas on The Transition Handbook

The Transition Handbook, was launched at an event that was also Green Books‘ 21st birthday party. Caroline Lucas MEP sent a DVD as she couldn't be there in person. In it she describes the Transition movement as “the most exciting, most hopeful, most inspirational movement happening in Britain today”. It is worth a look as she also covers the latest on Peak Oil and how the EU are failing to tackle it.




At least Peak Oil is now getting talked about a little more - even Sir Richard Branson acknowledges it - although in an interview he told journalist David Strahan that aviation could be made “truly sustainable” at the launch of test flight fuelled in part by coconut oil. He did though concede that meaningful supplies of alternative fuel might not be available before the advent of peak oil, which he said could happen within six years. See more here.
