Designing A Resilient Economy For A Post-carbon Future

A Panel Presentation:

  • Marie Poland, Sustainable South Sound, Buy Local Program;
  • Larry Levine, local owner Oly Bikes;
  • Lisa Smith, Executive Director, Enterprise for Equity;
  • Peter Stroble, WELCO Lumber Co.
How will peak oil and climate change affect the local economy?
What defines a "local" business?
Why is supporting local important for us?

The focus for the evening will be on examining the expected effects on our local economy from both a changing climate and increased costs and reduced availability of fossil fuels. The panel presentation will be followed by a salon to discuss ways the community can begin to develop support.

This event will be held at the MIXX 96 meeting room, corner of State and Washington in Olympia. There will also be an opportunity to learn about the Transition Movement either by coming at 6 pm before the program or by attending a screening of “In Transition”, the movie at the Olympia Library on either Saturday, March 13 or April 10 at 10:30 am.

All Transition Olympia events are free and open to the public. Refreshments will be available and donations are always appreciated. Contact: mailto:joanne@naturalcoach.com
