Transition Grenoble Metropole, ENSE3 Institute, France June 2018
Professor Krumdieck and Jeremy Pascal carried out a Transition Engineering project on the wicked problems of automobile congestion, air pollution, access to affordable housing with high energy standard, all in the context of meeting the COP21 requirement of 80% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2040. The Transition Engineering process and the five shift projects that resulted were presented to a workshop of people from research institutes and companies and the local government. Then a short workshop was held where different working groups framed up a proposal for some of the shift projects and presented their concepts to the local government officials.
Introduction of the People and the Project (first 19 minutes in French) What is the Project, What is Transition Engineering?
Results of the InTIME Project and 5 Shift Projects How did we do it, what are the new ideas?
Presentation of the Shift Projects developed in the Workshop What are the Shift Project Ideas for the City?

"business as usual" versus the "transitional" behavioral inertia of different sectors in response to perceived survival crisis: the roles of evidence and collective cultural vision in availability potential of future development options. In plain English – What are we going to do about oil supply decline and climate disruption risk, and who is ‘we’ exactly?
