ABOUT SEAC (now TRANSITION SUNSHINE COAST)
The Sunshine Coast Energy Action Centre (SEAC), offers information, courses and presentations on Transition Initiatives, climate change, peak oil, energy descent planning, relocalisation, permaculture and much, much more. SEAC has now evolved into Transition Sunshine Coast.
We offer a creative and positive response to peak oil and climate change by linking together all the aspects needed for sustainable living, by providing free information to the community and by building partnerships with key regional stakeholders.
Our mission is to make a real difference in our local region by providing inspirational education, information, planning and action strategies and by promoting more sustainable choices for a low impact, low emission future.
We've brought key groups in the region, including local council, to be part of the planning and implementation of an Energy Descent Action Plan (EDAP), the next logical step in ‘think global – act local’.
We are a focal point for information, networking and education for; members of the public, community groups, environmentalists, schools, university students, teachers, academics, the media, businesses, industry, council, state government … in fact we are here for anyone interested in being part of positive, community-led collaborative action that is making a real difference in our region.
