Transition in Bristol
A City-Wide Movement
Transition Bristol is a volunteer-led initiative and part of the worldwide Transition Movement. It acts in support of city-level resilience projects in Bristol.
The Transition idea is that our biggest asset is ourselves - the skills knowledge creativity & experience within our own communities.
The Transition idea underpins many projects that are already strengthening local resilience.
Decreasing our use of fossil fuels is not negotiable. We have a choice - to make this shift in a way that builds community.
The Transition process is constantly evolving, as more of us take up the challenge and run with it, flexibly adapting to the situations around us. The work of “unleashing the collective genius” of the city will always be 'work in progress'.
