Transition Streets is a grassroots initiative that focuses on connecting and supporting neighborhoods around the issues of sustainability, giving real meaning to the phrase, “think globally; act locally”. Transition Streets are for renters and home owners. They are for linking up with our neighbours to make our homes and even our streets more energy efficient, less resources dependent (oil, coal, gas and other resources), more self-reliant with food, less wasteful, healthier and more enjoyable places to live.
