Too much to get into.

Transition Toronto (TTo) was formed in November 2009.

OUR VISION A Toronto made up of interconnected neighbourhoods that are locally resilient.

Our mission is to:

-build connections between individuals, neighbourhoods, and local government to increase community engagement; -encourage and enable individuals to reduce fossil fuel dependency; -empower people to retain or increase their quality of life; -identify, develop, and share local resources; and, -inspire and support positive action for community solutions to increase local resilience.

We work in collaboration with other non-profit groups on projects that overlap with our members’ interests and TTo’s goals, including the Green Neighbours Network of Toronto.
