Quote from Joline on February 23, 2025, 4:58 pmPermaculture ethics of Earth Care , People Care ad Fare Share, as well as many strategies for living in harmony with ecosystems and co-generating abundance go beyond growing food for humans.
- We can plant more native species to increase local carrying capacity of our backyard, neighborhood, and urban ecosystems. This would lead to a greater diversity of insects that feed local birds. Exotic plants often cant do this so collapse the web. (Nature's Best Hope, Douglas Tallamy)
- We can extend nature's laws to our own cultural practices as diagrammed in the permaculture flower above.
- We can shift our economic systems out of infinite growth and profit models to nature positive economies.
Which of these are most important for you and for local bioregion resilience?
