next meeting

The next Transition City Canterbury meeting will be on Tuesday 20th October at the Farmhouse, Dover St. Canterbury, starting about 6.30pm with a film at 7.30pm.

The film will be Blind Spot, which is described as “ a documentary film that illustrates the current oil and energy crisis that our world is facing. Whatever measures of ignorance, greed, wishful thinking, we have put ourselves at a crossroad, which offers two paths with dire consequences. If we continue to burn fossil fuels we will choke the life out of the planet and if we don’t our way of life will collapse.” – A little on the gloomy side, but it’s new (released 2008) so I thought it might be interesting.

There is no agenda for the meeting, just bring yourself, a cheeky grin and enough money for a drink or two and meet up with some like-minded people.

So far there are just two members of my Transition City Canterbury Carbon Club, but it will be much more interesting, and indeed useful, for more to join, so do please give it a go. It is highly likely that we will be able to use the energy consumption data gathered to make persuasive arguments about our future energy policies at council level, but there needs to be enough data to be useful.

See you on 20th.
