Transition in Action, Totnes 2030, an Energy Descent Action Plan

Resilience Indicators

From the research that led to this Plan, we have identified a number of key indicators by which we can be sure that we are moving in the right direction. These include:

  • The percentage of the population with basic food production skills
  • The percentage of the population who feel confident in cooking with fresh produce
  • The percentage of food consumed locally which has been also grown locally
  • The number of people who feel they have access to good advice, skills and retraining in basic food production
  • The percentage of land (agricultural & urban) under utilisation for food production
  • Rates of obesity and chronic heart disease
  • The average body mass index

These can be returned to regularly to see if the community is making progress in the right direction.
