Village Vancouver

Vancouver's Leader in Transition toward Strong, Resilient, Complete Communities

Discussion Forum

Ecology

Perhaps not the only reason for Transition, but maybe the most important, our Environment is by far the most difficult to "fix" after it is damaged. It also has ways of taking our predations back out on us. Global warming is hurting, and killing, millions every year, and causing billions of dollars of property damage. Here is where we can discuss how to protect Gaia, or at least to hurt her less. Without ecology, we have no economy. View Discussions

Equity, or Social Justice

One of the three core principles of sustainability, along with ecology and economics, equity (aka social justice) is critical to motivate and manage a stable and lasting Transition. View Discussions

Arts/Celebration/Community Gatherings

No movement goes anywhere without spirit, soul, joy, and even partying. Fun and excitement must reign supreme, and the arts provide the ways and means to engage, entertain, and truly teach. View Discussions

Health

Health, of the person and of the community, is necessary both for the survival and success of our society and species. It must be maintained and celebrated, and cannot be allowed to decline. View Discussions

Spirituality

"Heart and Soul" is the foundation of a movement for real and lasting change. We must engage the spirit of humanity to take meaningful action. The only question is how.
