Localizing our Economy The vulnerabilities of the national and global monetary systems are being exposed daily. Record numbers of housing foreclosures, wild volatility on Wall Street, banks and businesses failing at an alarming rate are some of the painful outcomes. Now is the time to improve the resiliency of our local economy. ![]() Local 20/20 is pleased to announce that a group of Jefferson County citizens have come together to facilitate financial investments that help local businesses and individuals. We invite you to learn more about the new Local Investing Opportunities Network. ![]() We also encourage everyone to take a fresh look at another of our innovative partners, the North Olympic Exchange, to determine how you can participate in our local currency system. Join Us Local 20/20 brings together individuals and organizations in our community interested in sustainability and who see the remedy for the dangers of globalization and our dependence on cheap oil in the re-localization of our economies. Local 20/20 encourages our community to conserve our local resources (water and land, both wild and cultivated), develop local energy sources, re-orient our activities in response to more limited transportation options, and learn how to produce the things we've grown accustomed to buying from somewhere else here in our own town. Local 20/20 invites the community to join the conversation about local sustainability and economic re-localization. General meetings are held each month. View our event calendar for meeting times and locations. General meetings and Council meetings are open to all North Olympic Peninsula community members. Also consider participating in the meetings and projects of the Action Groups who meet separately to discuss specific areas of action. |
