OT Lab. Celebration of the 40th anniversary of the launching of Limits to Growth in Washington, DC. On Thursday March 1st 2012, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the launching of Limits to Growth, the first report to the Club of Rome, a symposium entitled “Perspectives on Limits to Growth: Challenges to Building a Sustainable Planet” was hosted in Washington, DC by the Club of Rome and the Smithsonian Institution’s Consortium for Understanding and Sustaining a Biodiverse Planet.
The joint symposium of Club of Rome and the Smithsonian Institution celebrated the 40th anniversary of the launching of Limits to Growth, the first report of the Club of Rome published in 1972. This book, which sold over ten million copies in various languages, was one of the earliest scholarly works to recognize that the world was fast approaching its sustainable limits. Forty years later, the planet continues to face many of the same economic, social, and environmental challenges as when the book was first published.

Resilient Cities - ICLEI: Home. 15 April 2014 Together with eight international organizations ICLEI joined a new urban resilience partnership which was announced at the World Urban Forum in Medellin, Colombia last week. “There has been a tremendous outpouring of support for urban resilience in recent years. This new collaboration represents a consolidation of those efforts as we prepare for an explosion of urbanization in the 21st century” said Margareta Wahlström, UNISDR Chief and Co-patron of the Resilient Cities congress 2012 and 2013. The partnership has been established by UN-Habitat, UNISDR, The World Bank Group, the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR); the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB); the Rockefeller Foundation; the 100 Resilient Cities Centennial Challenge Programme, pioneered by the Rockefeller Foundation; the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group; and ICLEI - Local Governments for Sustainability.

A report on ‘Peak Money and Economic Resilience’, a Transition Network one-day conversation. 27 Apr 2012 A report on ‘Peak Money and Economic Resilience’, a Transition Network one-day conversation A while ago, Transition Network held a ‘Thinky Day’ around the Big Society and how Transition might best respond to that.
These bringings together of people to explore the ‘edge’ of Transition are very useful, and yesterday saw the next one, entitled ‘Peak Money and Economic Resilience: a Transition Network one-day conversation’, held at the offices of Calouste Gulbenkian in London. About 50 people came together to explore the scale of the economic challenges we are facing, what Transition is already doing to respond to that, and what else it might do, or how it might adapt what it does to be more appropriate to these fast-changing times. I will attempt here to provide a record of the day and of the key discussion points that emerged. The first speaker was Tony Greenham of new economics foundation (here are Tony’s slides). There are 4 ways to tackle the debt crisis. And that was that. Urban Resilience, le Journal. DIL. Communautés Résilientes. Selon le principe des “cinq cercles”, le premier cercle se trouve derrière les yeux.
La résilience, c’est être prêt physiquement, matériellement et mentalement. Etre prêt physiquement Il ne sert à rien d’accumuler du matériel, des vivres, de l’eau, des armes, du savoir-faire si en parallèle on se suicide à petites doses de “mort blanche”, qu’on est sédentaire, et qu’on ne s’exerce pas régulièrement et intelligement. Etre prêt matériellement Etre prêt matériellement, c’est profiter des avantages du monde moderne (telecom, soins, transports) et se préparer à s’en passer au besoin.
