Former German President waxes lyrical about Transition

Rob Hopkins — Tue, 07 May 2013 08:35:04 +0000

Transition Voices

Thanks to Transition Town Freiburg in Germany for this. Horst Köhler, recently-resigned German president (and former president of the IMF) gave a speech to a big world mobility conference (i.e. lots of car companies in the audience), in which he waxed lyrical about Transition! And a few days later he stood down. Here is the video of his talk, followed by a translation of what he said.
