Profile Information

In which Vancouver neighbourhood or other community do you live?
Mount Pleasant, Riley Park-South Cambie
If you don't live in Vancouver or are in another neighbourhood or community we did not list, please tell us where home is.
East of Little Mountain
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...
everything mentioned above, minus the 'arts'
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!)
I don't know, I want to attend some events and see whats what. My agenda is in its infancy but we are home owners and would like to do something with some of our space. we are also interested in growing more food, as such we have a plan to remove our fences and plant blueberry bushes
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?
A constant and permenant commitment every year to Skytrain and subway development. Investment in wave, wind and geothermal energy technologies. And the development of 220 volt charging stations that are going to be needed for the incoming electric cars. And endless such projects. At this time I do not have one specific small project that I want to tackle.
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 believe in the power of people working together to effect change and I want to be apart of the group whose focus is the common good. I am asked by my job to work hard, but, at least sometimes, it would make me feel better if my efforts were directed towards something more meaningful.
