The next Transition Cafe will take place from 7pm-10pm on Wednesday 28th September at Cafe Euro.
During the evening we will be discussing questions and suggestions for Transition Sheffield representatives to present to Sheffield Council the following week.
* Do you have a question about climate change, peak oil and/or the economic growth agenda that you would like to ask Sheffield Council?
* Do you have ideas for how communities in Sheffield can progress towards a low carbon economy?
* Do you want to find out more about Transition in Sheffield and help shape its agenda?
