Profile Information

How are you currently involved in the Transition movement?: I'm was a columnist for Mile Hi Green magazine and did Green Reports on 99/5 The Mountain for four years.. My web project is called the Denver Green Channel. I'm a veteran Green reporter locally and I'm transforming our 1/4 suburban acre into a micro-homestead.

In what ways do you identify with the Transition movement? Why are you interested?: I'm interested in the practical ground-level changes that a community can support to ready us for the upcoming transition from fossil fuel dependence to a much more practical infrastructure. Many brilliant people have shown the way already; I want to be a part of making Transition a household word, to making the concept attractive and attainable.

What background and skills do you bring to this community?: Green Reporter for 4 years locally; professional media for 20 years; suburban homesteader.

How can you help the growth/acceptance/vitality of the Transition movement?: Media knowledge, community action, networking using media connections.

Your Favorite Books/Websites/Blogs/RSS Feeds for Information about the Transition Movement: Radical Homemakers by Shannon Hayes (who I interviewed for the November issue of Mile Hi Green) Cool It by Bjorn Lomborg (let's pull away from the Climate fistfight and make the changes happen with common sense) Richard Heinberg's work: http://richardheinberg.com/ (I interviewed him previously for Mile Hi Green and for Green Reports on 99/5 the Mountain when I was there) and another previous interview for radio and article, Stewart Brand : http://web.me.com/stewartbrand/SB_homepage/Home.html

Your Personal Website (if you have one): http://denvergreenchannel.com

Suggestions you have for improving our Registration questions. Getting to know you better.: I think they are pretty comprehensive, and I appreciate the gauntlet. Members should demonstrate some knowledge and passion on the subject matter.

Great to see your interest in Transition! Welcome to the COLORADO TRANSITION NETWORK.

Feel free to join in our activities. Click on a person's photo to make contact. Say Hello. Reinforce the good things they're talking about and doing. Bring up a discussion that particularly interests you. Pose a question. Announce an event. Be serious. Have fun!

In your local community, does Wheat Ridge (or some broader geographic area) have a Transition-supporting website, or blog, or listserv, or Facebook, or Meetup where Transition subjects are dealt with? If so, it would be spot on for all our Colorado members if you would consider including Wheat Ridge in our registry of organizations, localities, virtual topics, companies, products, services, Twitterers, Facebooks, Meetups, etc. that support Transition and sustainability. What an opportunity for you to contribute to your neighbors!

Here's the page to create your link -- http://transitioncolorado.ning.com/groups/group/new. Creating the group will give you a place to make your community visible throughout Colorado, to keep track of your local members, to use a handy mailing list to contact everybody, to announce and discuss. You can see what 70 of our members have already created at http://transitioncolorado.ning.com/groups What do you say... Interested? I'll be glad to help launch and build your group.

One more thing. It would be super to see your photo -- "Choose File" on http://transitioncolorado.ning.com/profiles/settings/editProfileInfo -- Let me know if you need assistance. I'll be delighted to do some photoshopping if needed.

Again, welcome!
