Profile Information

In which Vancouver neighbourhood or other community do you live?
Arbutus Ridge-Kerrisdale-Shaughnessy
Please tell us which areas of Transition interest you. For example: growing more food/urban agriculture, relocalizing our economy/local currency, Permaculture, transit, energy efficient buildings, the arts, urban homesteading, preserving seed diversity, placemaking, potlucks, outreach, organizing events, community-building, having fun while saving the world, or...
Supporting community organizations through advanced food related systems and programs that are sustainable and help struggling farmers in third world countries. Interested in those who wish to support the local community while working with international programs and suppliers. Seed programs, food, compost, nutrition and personal safety are just some areas of interest.
There's a saying that "Transition is not a spectator sport". It's true! Village Vancouver runs on people power, and engaging in activities and projects together helps us accomplish more. Which groups, networks, neighbourhood villages, or projects do you think you might be interested in getting involved with? And what knowledge, skills, resources or other assets can you bring to the mix? (Don't be bashful!)
In the process of discussing with local community support programs and will update this section later. Extensive international background.
What would you like to see improved in Vancouver or in your community regarding sustainability or resiliency? Do you have an idea for a new Transition project or activity?
Looking to setup a pilot program that would remove a lot of what I see as very expensive waste management programs that affect businesses in a negative way – while also providing a greater reduction in emissions
I agree to read and abide by the Site Guidelines under the About tab on the navigation bar, remaining respectful in all communications on this web site.
Yes
Don't feel like answering all the questions now? No worries, just tell us briefly why you're interested in joining at this time, and you can come back and update your profile later.
I am working with a non profit to help setup advanced composting/food production.
