Shaun Chamberlin
Since 2005 Shaun has devoted himself full-time to exploring the dominant cultural stories and 'myths' that chart the course for our society and, in particular, how we might change direction before we end up where we are headed. His work has featured on the BBC and been discussed across the UK press, including the Guardian, Sunday Times and Daily Express, as well as internationally by Time magazine, Bloomberg News and the Financial Times.
He is chair of the Ecological Land Co-operative and managing director of the Fleming Policy Centre, and has been involved with the Transition Network since its inception, leading to him to co-founding Transition Town Kingston and authoring the movement's second book, The Transition Timeline.
He has delivered presentations at venues ranging from community groups, Climate Camps and Occupations to the London School of Economics, the UK and Scottish Parliaments and the European Commission, and has been shortlisted for the Sheila McKechnie Foundation Environmental Campaigner Award as well as, locally, being named Kingston's 'Green Champion' by the council and Kingston Guardian newspaper.
Shaun also served as an advisor to the UK Department of Energy and Climate Change and a director of the campaigning
organisation Global Justice Now, and co-authored the All Party Parliamentary Group on Peak Oil's report into TEQs (Tradable Energy Quotas).
