NEXT MEETING

"New Hope for Changing World"

Transition South Liverpool presents an evening with one of Britain's foremost localisers: John Papworth. Years before anyone woke up to the double whammy of climate change and peak oil, John was arguing for small scale solutions to our problems

Wednesday 3rd September 2008

Aigburth Cricket and Bowls Club, Next to St Michaels station, 7pm

Free, although a small donation to cover Transition South Liverpool's costs would be appreciated

Founder and original editor of Resurgence, currently editor of Fourth World Review, author of 6 books, star of the film No Man is an Island, and subject of the film Turbulent Priest, John is an ecologist, futurist and Anglican priest.

Things are falling apart. War clouds gather, human numbers outstrip resources, oil is drying up, banks are in turmoil, the natural world is vandalised by industry, our local community structures are destroyed by big government, and our young people are living with no hope of any decent future.

Is there any answer anywhere?

Of course there is!

A new world is breaking through, The Fourth World, a world of small nations, small communities, small industries, farms and shops; a world where people matter and are in control of their own affairs.
