For Rob Hopkins, the co-founder of the Transition Network, meaningful change is now most likely not at the centre but through local government. The Transition movement began in Hopkins’s home town of Totnes, Devon, in 2006, when people began sharing ideas of how to move from a carbon-based economy to a healthier, more sustainable community. Community change often begins with food. “You don’t need anyone’s permission around food. It’s not expensive. You just need people, tools and a deadline,” Hopkins says. In Totnes, “it’s been a fairly lonely furrow for a long time. Finally the surrounding world is starting to catch up a little bit.” Now that 245 local authorities across the UK have declared a climate emergency, which requires tough new carbon-reduction targets, councils will require the practical ideas of the Transition movement.

The issue is not just a global one, but affecting the day-to-day operations of West Midlands-based companies. In our latest Rethinking the Economy survey, a quarter of regional businesses admitted that one of the biggest threats in the next six months was the availability of goods or materials caused by supply chain issues. When you consider that more than a third of West Midlands businesses also pointed towards the ongoing impacts of Brexit, including supply chain disruption and complicated customs legislation, it is very clear that the movement of goods in and out of the region is a pressing matter.
