- 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?
- Emissions. The waste in the Burrard inlet. Electric cars. The promotion of other clean energy sources (solar, wind, other) and legislation to allow freedom from the grid, and for people to sell surplus energy.
