Transition Los Angeles

Learning about a budding circle of people in England, who were “doing something” about climate change and peak oil, ECM and Holy Nativity brought trainers from the U.K. and hosted Southern California’s first ever “Transition Training.”

Over time, eight local groups have formed with ECM representing Westchester. Each of these groups had its own focus and perspective, depending on local needs and the interest of local participants. Today “Transition in Los Angeles” is the term we use to describe all the action that is happening on this front.

Seed Freedom L.A.

Inspired and encouraged by international food-and-seed activist Vandana Shiva in 2012, the Seed Freedom L.A. coalition was formed by a group of activists. The group is working to have Los Angeles declared a “GMO-free zone.”
