What I like about Transition films is the inspiration they convey, showing what can be achieved when community spirit combines with positive vision generating practical action.&nbsp;&nbsp; Its about small projects combining together towards a coherent strategy. These films aren't just about extraordinary individuals or fringe communities.</p> <div class="og_rss_groups"></div><p><a href="http://www.green-enterprise.org/node/154" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://www.green-enterprise.org/node/154#comments Mon, 10 Oct 2011 15:56:29 +0000 Nicola Terry 154 at http://www.green-enterprise.org
