Transition Mayfield is part of a national initiative in response to the crisis in fossil fuel supply and reserves world wide, referred to as Peak Oil. There is increasing energy consumption in the West and escalating demand in the developing nations. Nuclear and hydrogen energy are not safe and fraught with long term problems. The objective is to make the transition to renewable energy. The present level of demand cannot be met solely with renewable energy. There is a need for creative, practical ways to consume less energy. The Transition Initiative is a catalyst for communities to formulate and implement ideas and strategies for local, sustainable development.
