Transition Omaha is part of an international grassroots movement begun in the U.K. in response to the challenges of peak oil, climate change and economic instability. The movement is not affiliated with any political or religious organizations.
Transition Omaha is committed to strengthening our local community and our economy through re-localization—the process of building greater local resilience and self-reliance.
Transition Omaha supports the local community in taking action to mitigate the effects of these challenges by planning for energy descent and relocalization in all areas of community life.
When community needs are met through locally produced food, and essential goods and services, energy consumption is reduced and the local economy stabilizes. In the process of transition to a lower energy consumption life-style, opportunities exist for greater community resilience and more fulfilling social connections.
