"Rescaling Sustainability Transitions: Unfolding the Spatialities of Power Relations, Governance Arrangements, and Socio-Economic Systems"

SpringerLinkRescaling Sustainability TransitionsThis open access book explores sustainability transitions with a focus on their influence on the relationships between cores and peripheries

As the grid loses power in heatwaves, and communities & landscapes face mounting extraction for battery supply chains, this video shows how we can make environmentally just transitions to solar at scale — cooking, heating, refrigerating food, and living our daily lives.

This is especially important in the context of mining, and furthers the vision of the newly announced Indigenous Peoples Principles and Protocols for Just Transition.

We're looking to support this vision in urban and residential areas through new housing projects, resilience hubs, and retrofits/conversions to existing buildings. If you're interested, we're very up to collaborate and connect with new partners on that!

Finally, please watch and share! We're hoping for a lot of people to see this, and watching till the end helps algorithms recommend it to more people. Hoping to bring a lot more of the conversation to this direction.

'Transitions: The Unheard Stories' is a book for trans and cis readers alike. It tells stories that most cis people will never have heard before. The ordinary, everyday experiences of trans people going through transition; stories of hardship and of success, of exclusion and of finding your people; and grappling with an increasingly hostile medical establishment within the UK.
