Welcome to Transition Marlborough

Transition Marlborough aims to protect our town and the surrounding area from the rising costs of food, energy and transport which are being driven by the global challenges of depleting fossil fuel resources, climate change, and the resultant environmental impacts.

We are doing this by promoting community driven projects in renewable energy, food sovereignty, sustainable transport and recycling in all its forms, and as part of the overall Transition Movement we are contributing to the two critical issues of peak oil and climate change.  Our approach to addressing these isues is underpinned by permaculture philosophy and ethics.

By finding sustainable local solutions, we aim to help make the Marlborough area a more positive and rewarding place to live, work and visit, and contribute to creating a more sustainable future for everyone. This was given a further boost when Marlborough Town Council joined the Transition movement at the October 2011 full town council meeting.
