Dear ECOLISErs,

I am very pleased to announce the impending release of the first book to
be produced under the ECOLISE banner, 'Permaculture and Climate Change
Adaptation: Inspiring Ecological, Social, Cultural and Economic
Responses'. It draws on many ideas and examples from ecovillages and
Transition, so represents a good cross-section of what we're about. The
main target audience is policy people and other edges of our networks -
those likely to agree with our aims and methods and to be supportive of
our work - though we're hoping it will be an enjoyable read for people
already involved in community-based action too.

It's available for pre-order (hard copies will ship from Friday) and
digital download from Green Shopping
<http://www.green-shopping.co.uk/permaculture-and-climate-change-adaptation.html>.
There's a discount code for ECOLISE members and friends to get a 40%
reduction on the sale price, which you're welcome to circulate in your
networks. To use it enter GS-PCCA-6 at checkout on Green Shopping. We'll
have a few copies to give away at COP, and will give away more if money
comes in; a digital version will also be available for free at some
point but for now we need to sell a few to cover production costs and
have the possibility to finance a reprint.

If you've any ideas of how best to use this as a tool to promote
permaculture and related approaches to a wider audience, or are
interested in collaborating on translation, please let me know. Volume 2
in our 'Community-Led Transformations' series, a collection of articles
on Transition and Resilience, is already written and should be out in
the spring. Volume 3 is waiting to be imagined...

In solidarity,

Tom
