Beskrivning
What is permaculture design?How can you use it in your daily life,in your community or in land-based settings?Permaculture offers principles that are part of a holistic framework and a set of thinking tools that allow us to creatively re-design our environment and our behaviour in an unravelling world and, like a living system, it has evolved and grown. We can demonstrate and develop that these tried and tested principles work, bringing us back to a unity with nature and community. In this collaborative book, Wilf Richards, plus a collective of experienced permaculture teachers and elders from across Britain and beyond, explore David Holmgren's twelve permaculture principles, retrieve many of Bill Mollison's original ones, and include new principles from permaculture designers worldwide. Together they share a history of each principle, its evolution, and tell stories of how they are now being used, understood and applied.Permaculture principles have evolved from Indigenous knowledge, observations of nature's cycles, and the living, teaching and practice of permaculture over the past 50 years in many different climates and cultures. They can be applied to our personal, economic, social and political lives. The ethical foundation of permaculture guides us to use these design tools for the betterment of the land, our wild relatives, and human culture.Full of stories and case studies, The Power of Permaculture Principles will enable you to enrich your knowledge of permaculture and how to apply it to your own life.

Recensioner i media

'The Power of Permaculture Principles is a rich guide for both designers and educators. Wilf and his contributors offer insights that deepen permaculture practice and understanding. I'll be recommending it in all our courses.'Morag Gamble, Permaculture Education Institute'An extraordinary contribution to permaculture design thinking, this book is a brilliant example of how people can learn from nature and become better earth citizens. A must read for anyone interested in becoming a more effective and ethical decision maker.'Delvin Solkinson, Dean and Instructor, Permaculture School at Pacific Rim College'Permaculture is a constantly evolving body of ideas, and navigating the sheer plethora of permaculture principles intended as aids to our design thinking can end up being confusing rather than helpful. In this book, Wilf and his collaborators have managed to pull together and bring coherence to a sometimes bewildering array of guidelines and precepts derived from many writers, thinkers, and practitioners - No small feat! What emerges is a distilled 'pattern language' of permaculture thinking tools, an invaluable resource for teachers, designers, or indeed anybody wanting to apply permaculture to their daily lives.'Graham Burnett, permaculture teacher and author, including The Vegan Book of Permaculture
