About the Program:
The Model of Transition for Sustainable Living (MTSL) program consists of twelve modules—one of which will be covered each month in 2011. Together they will provide an overall perspective on current thinking and technology, as well as practical skills for everyday sustainable living. The MTSL program includes a Workbook/Planner, a Reader, a Resource Directory, a Journal, and a series of Visual Aides.

The program has been designed to work in concert with local participating businesses and organizations. The mission of the program is to empower you to act; to transition you from wherever you are today, to a lifestyle that is highly sustainable, within the one-year time period of the course. Therefore, the program consists of 20% theory and 80% practical application.

The course, if completed, will:

· dramatically lower your carbon emissions
· save you money on utilities
· reduce your demand on resources
· assist you in becoming more socially responsible
· help you to become a steward of the environment.
