The clip has been filmed in a local center that is already doing the transition work by selling local foods etc. The balding guy talks about what the concept of Transition Towns are and how to introduce the concept in The Netherlands, to prepare people for the dwindling oil reserves.

It mainly focuses on 'Deventer' (town/small city in the east of the Netherlands), which apparently is the first transition town in the Netherlands. Also there is talk about setting up a national steering group (or something like that) for transition towns in order to promote cooperation and learn from each other.

They also speak about the need to work together in community, learn from the elders, and start the ball rolling.
