Today's show is the interview I just did with Jen and Sammy of the Millennial Pioneers Podcast on What Is Permaculture? We talk about the basics of what permaculture is about, and tangible, simple ways to get started integrating permaculture design and mindset into designing our own lives.
We are living in a time when the bills racked up over the past centuries and decades of over-taxing our ecological support base, looting our economy and profligately expending energy are coming due. Permaculture design can solve a lot of the problems, or at the very least help us navigate the consequences of the predicaments that we find ourselves in, that we face as we navigate a future of decreasing net energy, fractured and dysfunctional ecologies and the death of the prosperity=constant growth economy.
