RE: The Long Lost Art of Permaculture #1: Sustainability
Calling permaculture a long lost art is a bit a misnommer. While it does bear similarites to things that humans have done before; it is a new way of thinking about the problems of agriculture. Permaculture is not a step back in time and its damaging to suggest that it is.
Many methods of permaculture are ancient. It's obviously not a step back in time, but it is a revival of sorts. I don't know where you live, but I live in the U.S. and dysfunctional agriculture has taken over. To suggest I'm damaging permaculture is comical. I'm encouraging people to be more sustainable and using permaculture as a tool to do that.
