Transition Salt Spring

TSS is a community-led response to climate change and oil dependancy. We are a registered BC non-profit society and part of the global Transition Town movement. TSS supports community members whose vision is to work together to create resilience and vibrancy in our community. TSS projects, initiatives and events encourage environmentally sustainable practices and methods, including: organic food production, renewable energy, green building technologies, alternative transportation, water conservation, waste-avoidance, and green business practices.
