      Spring is emerging and with it some very innovative ideas. Check out the <a

      Carbon Project</a>. It is sequestering large percentages of carbon in the
      soil by mimicking natural cycles of grazing (where animals are moving
      through pasturelands), indigenous plantings and organic fertilization
      techniques.  To give you an idea of the scale of the solution they
      are coming up with: 6 tons of carbon added yearly to 1/3 of California’s
      rangeland soils equals all of California’s yearly emissions.… All of
      them.  Such a dramatic possibility brought agricultural directors
      from the People’s Republic of China over for an in-depth visit from which
      they left very pleased.<br>
       <br>
      If you don’t want to take on rangeland farming, maybe you’ll want to grow
      a garden. How about 350 of them? Join the <a

      This project was initiated in 2009 in response to the rapidly growing
      number of Transition Initiatives around the world. This initial release
      meets the core need for consolidating community information (initiatives,
      people, and projects) and in our opinion is pretty darn cool.<br>
      <br>
      One aspect of the project we here at Transition US are most excited about
      is the prospect of replacing the original “mullers maps” that have served
      us well but couldn’t keep up with the pace of the movement. We will be
      asking for your assistance in populating this new centralized database
      with more details about you and your TI in the weeks and months ahead.
      Many thanks to all who have worked to get this great project off and
      running! <a
