PCTT pot-luck tea

Come along to a pot-luck tea, to chat, eat, drink, and catch up with Frank Budding, who was involved with the first 'official' transition town, Totnes, in the UK.  Kids most welcome too.

Everyone very welcome, whether you are living out in Port or just a friendly supporter from anywhere at all!

It will be the last get-together of the year, so plan is just to have fun and maybe throw in some ideas of just how exactly glorious - and resilient - we want our place to be.

Location / Venue: 
Rolfe Room (opp library), Port Chalmers

However, we have to face the fact that oil, and other hydrocarbons (natural gas, coal) are finite resources. They originate from anaerobic decomposition of buried organic material, most of which accumulated during distinct periods in Earth history when life flourished due to the climate – mostly hundreds of millions of years ago. » Read more
