Bournemouth group began in 2008/2009? We support Fairtrade Bournemouth and the local Sustainable Food City Partnership In 2018 we received the Avonbourne Earth Charter award for most environmentally friendly ethos.

Transition Bournemouth - Why do it? There is a pressing need for the community to transition to a future where we can withstand the inevitable changes which will result from both Climate Change and Peak Oil. Peak oil, the point at which production is in decline. According to the IPCC We are on track for a 3-4°C temperature rise. Not to mention plastic pollution, environmental degradation, loss of biodiversity, soil degradation, economic instability.
