Transition Towns.

I went along to a Transitions Town event tonight all about power, as in the energy kind (although as I was reminded there was a difference between those two concepts). There was some obvious stuff about monitoring your usage, insulation, double glazing etc. The more thought provoking things were around living "off the grid", basic solutions for power shortages, should they be in our collective futures. For example, building a little windmill. We're not talking survivalism or holing up with guns, but more basic solutions for practical people. I think, not sure, this was the link.
