My TEDxExeter talk: ‘My town in Transition’

by Rob Hopkins, originally published by Transition Culture  | May 1, 2012

A couple of weeks ago I spoke at TedxExeter, a fantastic occasion with many great speakers (have a look at their website as more and more of the films from the day go online). I spoke for the first time in detail about Totnes as a case study, and what, after 6 years, we can draw from the experience of Transition Town Totnes. I hope you enjoy it.
