Transition Town Totnes explores the Transition Movement with founder Rob Hopkins, interviewed in the original Transition Town, Totnes, England. The Transition Movement presents an answer to the challenges of peak oil, climate change and a globalized food economy through community resource management, local food and energy production and the creation of a localized economy. Transition Town Totnes won Best Short at this year’s Yale Environmental Film Festival. At a time when many people wonder how to make a difference in the world, the Transition Town Movement leads the way as a tangible response to the most pressing challenges of our time.
