By Steve, on March 31st, 2011%

Very much an antidote to The Age of Stupid shown in March, InTransition1.0 is a detailed film about the Transition Movement, filmed by those people around the world who have started rebuilding their local economies and communities with creativity, imagination and humour. It is positive, solutions focused, viral and fun. The 50-minute film will be followed by an open forum to share ideas on how the Transition Movement can benefit Sherborne and the surrounding area. . . . → Read More: The Antidote Film to Age of Stupid: InTransition1.0

In memory of Pete Postlethwaite: Age of Stupid

By Steve, on March 17th, 2011%
Age of Stupid

This is a must see film about climate change and the end of cheap oil. The film stars Pete Postlethwaite as a man living on his own in 2055 looking at old archive footage and asking why we didn’t we stop climate change when we had the chance. It is a film about real people and real situations, such as Al Duvernay who was in the New Orleans flood and worked for an oil company, and Fernand Pareau, an 82 year old mountain guide who explains how he has seen the Mont Blanc glacier recede. . . . → Read More: In memory of Pete Postlethwaite: Age of Stupid

Stop The Litter Newsletter (March 2011)

By Caroline, on March 7th, 2011%
Sherborne and District CPRE

The project was started at the beginning of 2010 in response to complaints from an invited audience at a forum held in St. Paul’s Hall. The Town Councillors from East Ward, Cllr. Peter Rhodes and Cllr. Jon Andrews, joined forces with the Sherborne branch of CPRE and Sherborne Area Partnership to address this problem. Initially it was agreed to send a group of litter pickers to certain areas of the town where the problem seemed most acute. This resulted in 15 bags of litter in one two hour session! It was then decided that the project should expand to cover the whole town and involve the Town Council, the local traders and the community at large. . . . → Read More: Stop The Litter Newsletter (March 2011)
