Joanne Poyourow merges an understanding of post-peak
concepts with a background in traditional economics.
She is the initiator of Transition Los Angeles and currently directs the
Environmental Change-Makers nonprofit organization. She blogs at Transition US
and her work is syndicated internationally.
Joanne was a C.P.A. in public practice for 13 years. She holds a degree in Business Economics from
the University of California, Santa Barbara.
She has extensively studied post-peak materials – post
carbon, post-petroleum, and post-growth – in search of positive solutions which
will work at a grassroots level. Her
economics work is informed by the principles of Permaculture and more than two
decades of gardening food. She is the author
of several works about the transition to post-peak lifestyles.
The Economic
Resilience booklets, ebook and blog share what can be put in place within a
local community to prepare us for what lies ahead.
