Winter Film Series One

In an effort to connect with other interested residents in Yuma, Transition Initiative Yuma, T.I.Y., is hosting a series of screenings at the Yuma Public Library. All screenings will be held in the 2nd floor classroom at the main branch. Here is a link to the flyer.

The series will start Saturday November 6th at 11am, with a screening of Transition 1.0 accompanied by a presentation by Mike Mayberry, a member of Transition Initiative Yuma.



Transition 1.0 is the first detailed film about the Transition movement filmed by those that know it best, those who are making it happen on the ground. The Transition movement is about communities around the world responding to peak oil and climate change with creativity, imagination and humour.

The series will continue on Saturday November 13th at 12pm with a screening of the film, The End of Suburbia.


As we enter the 21st century, serious questions are beginning to emerge about the sustainability of this way of life. With brutal honesty and a touch of irony, The End of Suburbia explores the American Way of Life and its prospects as the planet approaches a critical era.


The end of the first phase of the Winter Film Series will conclude on November 20th at 11am with a screening of Crude Impact.



This feature film explores the interconnection between human domination of the planet, and the discovery and use of oil. Presentation and moderated discussion follows.
