Library

The 'Library' is a list of reading materials relevent to Transitioning.

Introduction to Transition:

• The Transition Handbook - Creating local sustainable communities beyond oil dependency* - Rob Hopkins - the 'must-read' on Transitioning. This is the newly released (2009) Australian and New Zealand edition which is the same as the UK version, but with some added information on what's happening in these two countries. Watch a video by the author, Rob Hopkins, which explains some of the basics.

• Kinsale Energy Descent Plan - a PDF document of the orginal EDP (as an example) and integral part of a Transition initiative.
