Regular discussions are held at The University of Plymouth on how people can reduce their dependence on unsustainable fuels, their extravagant consumption and move from centralised economics towards local alternatives.

Everyone is welcome to participate in this process.

The Next Meeting is : Friday 19th March. 18:30 – 21:00

Roland Levinsky Building, Room :- ???

4th March:
The meeting at Pat's was attended by Sue Baxter, Janice and me.

Sue Baxter, as the first order of business obtained an agreement that a) Pat would be the facilitator and b) that we would agree by consensus business.

Pat then vetoed any discussion on selecting any logos on the basis that Dorothea and Adriana had versions that were not available at the meeting.

I disagreed with this as the mandate was to select 3 versions and everyone at the general meeting were instructed to either arrive with their submissions or send them to the meeting either by proxy or via the internet/email. Given there were none I consider we could/should have proceeded.

We had some discussion on the elements available and Sue and Janice clearly liked 3 that were available. Sue liked the one that is currently the logo at the top right of this site. Janice liked aspects of the following two.

  
Given Pat's veto I suggest that at the general meeting another opportunity for submissions is considered.

As I left before the meeting ended I have no idea if there were any agreed views to present to the next general meeting. So it would be great if any of the other participants can add to this post.

To comment on the meeting please use the feedback option or if you would like to discuss any logo or issues surrounding the logo notion, please go to theLogo topic on the forum.

Thank you : Roger

It was agreed that the constitution needs rather a lot of attention. Two options seem to be available as a basis. Hopefully these will be available here soon and discussed on the forum.

The main points are:

Good facilitation: resulting in agreements to further the logo, website and constitution discussions. Please see the relevant post for more detail on each.

A number of events are planned which will be advertised soon.

There was a website meeting at Barbara's on Wednesday 3rd Feb. Sadly only Dorothea and I turned up. Oliver pointed the domain name 'transitionplymouth.org.uk' away from this site toa new blog

If the above link returns to this page it means the new site is not currently available. You can use theforum to discuss what you would like and to comment on the site when it is available.
