Reyouzd.com is a proud supporter of the Transition Teeswater Initiative.  As its kickoff, TTI  delivered a viewing of The End of Suburbia and discussion forum on peak oil and climate change following.  

We've held a Clothing Swap and a 100 mile Pot Luck with viewing of The Power of Community followed by Open Space discussions.

We have hosted Mike Nickerson, author of Life, Money & Illusion: Living on Earth as if We Want to Stay

We are working with people in the area  to help initiate projects to help ensure a more sustainable community in future.
