Jump to: navigation search Permaculture Mandala summarising the ethics and principles of permaculture design. The word permaculture , coined by Australians Bill Mollison and David Holmgren during the 1970s, is a portmanteau of perma nent agri culture as well it is was perma nent culture . Through a series of publications, Mollison, Holmgren and their associates documented an approach to designing human settlements, in particular the development of perennial agricultural systems that mimic the structure and interrelationship found in natural ecologies Permaculture design principles extend from the position that "The only ethical decision is to take responsibility for our own existence and that of our children" (Mollison, 1990). The intent was that, by rapidly training individuals in a core set of design principles, those individuals could become designers of their own environments and able to build increasingly self-sufficient human settlements — ones that reduce society's reliance on industrial systems of production and distribution that Mollison identified as fundamentally and systematically destroying the earth's ecosystems. While originating as an agro-ecological design theory, permaculture has developed a large international following of individuals who have received training through intensive two week long 'permaculture design courses'. This 'permaculture community' continues to expand on the original teachings of Mollison and his associates, integrating a range of

3. Permaculture The Earth
Offers information about sustainable design and interactive forums for the discussion of topics related to permaculture.
http://www.permaearth.org/
Scientific research has demonstrated that ecological stability is achieved through biological diversity, and no single organism is responsible for that stability. Permaculture research reveals that this stability is achieved only through a complex network of connections..."functional connections" between elements in the total system. The more functional connections a system has, the more sustainable it becomes.
Modeling this concept of functional connections is the basis of Permaculture Design. These web pages will provide the functional connections that link people to people and people to information. Our "forums" are interactive and help serve the growing interest in Permaculture Design and all its applications. New information is added regularly so stop back often and browse.
"Permaculture is the art and science that applies patterns found in nature to the design and construction of human and natural environments. Only by applying such patterns and principles to the built environment can we truly achieve a sustainable living system. Permaculture principles are now being adapted to all systems and disciplines that human settlement requires. Architects, planners, farmers, economists, social scientists, as well as students, homeowners and gardeners can utilize the principles of Permaculture Design." ~ Larry Santoyo

http://www.permacultureportal.com/

Welcome to the Bullock's Permaculture Portal! The Portal serves as a resource for permaculture information as well as the online home for our extraordinary permaculture site on Orcas Island, the Bullock's Permaculture Homestead. For over 25 years we have applied our shared experience to create what experts refer to as the finest permaculture site in North America. Together we develop and implement practical solutions for sustainable living while offering hands-on permaculture courses, workshops, internships, and more. "The Bullock brothers up on Orcas Island have always been great, you know, mixed system, marsh and hillside and there are many others, I'm sure. But for every Bullock brother, there are a hundred woo woos spinning around in circles."
- Bill Mollison, Permaculture Founder "What permaculturists are doing is the most important activity that any group is doing on the planet. We don't know what details of a truly sustainable future are going to be like, but we need options, we need people experimenting in all kinds of ways and permaculturists are one of the critical gangs that are doing that."

More Evidence of Mycorrhizal Fungi as Arsenic Beater By Douglas Barnes As has been mentioned on this site before (See Beating Arsenic in Bengal and Bangladesh ), arsenic is a serious problem in many parts of the world killing hundreds of thousands of people each year. It can cause cancers in skin, bladder, kidney and lungs, cause gangrene by damaging blood vessels in the legs and feet, is suspected of aggravating or contributing to diabetes, high blood pressure and to fertility problems. Research by the University of Aberdeen had discovered that Glomus mosseae reduced arsenic uptake in lentils irrigated with arsenic-contaminated water. Now new research done in China using different species of mycorrhizal fungi finds that the fungi can also protect corn from arsenic contamination. Using Glomus species and Acaulospora species, the team found that the fungi reduced plant uptake of arsenic: It is reasonable to expect that other plants that form mycorrhizal associations would also have reduced arsenic uptakes from Glomus species and likely Acaulospora species as well. In arsenic-contaminated regions, it would be a good idea to inoculate soils with Glomus species

Wherein good design in front makes less work behind! Ahllan wa sahllan! My name is Murad and I am here to tell you, permaculture is the way to go, man! Permaculture is PERMAnant agriCULTURE... Acres USA:
"The more you understand, the more you can put nature to work for you, the less you need." Mollison:
"That's right. You should be thinking of getting out of work in six years time. You should be moving to where you don't have to move, you're just running around on the farm and admiring the ways the trees are working for you. This mate of mine... he's got a great big sign up on his farm, and it says: 'Employed on this farm are one stockman, one irrigation man and 50 billion worms. That's all.'"
    Permaculture is the design of human living spaces around environmental principles. Permaculture is not an end or destination, but rather a means or road leading towards sustainable and ecologically sound ways to meet human needs. Permaculture uses thoughtful observation rather than mindless labor. It uses cunning not resources. It works to slow the rate of increase of entropy (disorder). It turns waste to resources problems into assets. Permaculturists treat every situation differently work parallel to nature not at right angles to it. They care for the earth, care for people, give away surplus, and always pick up hitch-hikers.
To become a practitioner of Permaculture, you must first take a Permaculture Design Course and be certified. Permaculture Design Courses are going on regularly in 40 nations now. There are even regular convergences of Permaculture teachers, and Institutes for advancement of the science.

The Portland Permaculture Institute
is located within the city limits of Portland, Oregon. The site includes vegetable gardens, food forests, rainwater collection, gathering spaces, and ponds. Our goal is to demonstrate and teach in ways that enable people to develop the understanding and skills necessary to move toward a more sustainable life on the planet. Toward that goal, we offer Permaculture Design Certification and workshops on permaculture related topics.
What is permaculture?
Permaculture means learning from nature. The aim is to make our lives more sustainable and more productive while reducing the work and energy required. We do this by taking nature as the model for designing our own houses, gardens, farms, woodlands, towns and villages. (Patrick Whitefield, www.patrickwhitefield.co.uk/

The Permaculture Credit Union pools the financial resources of people who believe in the ethics of Permaculture - care of the earth, care of people, and reinvestment of surplus for the betterment of both. We apply those resources to earth-friendly and socially responsible loans and investments.
The history of financial institutions is one of focus on the bottom line which results in overexploitation of the earth's resources. Now, an innovative new financial institution - Permaculture Credit Union - has been established to allow its members to share their excess with other members of like mind who would use it for sustainable projects and, at the same time, take care of the Earth.
