In which Vancouver neighbourhood or other community do you live?: Downtown

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...: urban agriculture. permaculture. energy efficient buildings. urban homesteading. preserving seed diversity. alternative energy technology. biomass. biofuel. potlucks. edible and medicinal plants.

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!): Anything that improves the quality of living using the areas of transition mentioned. 20 years of construction experience. 5 years research into permaculture.

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?: Anything the customer needs to improve their area. I have permaculture designs and biomass concepts for urban living.
