What is Permaculture?
Permaculture is the merger of art and science to use resources in the most effective and efficient way possible. We observe and strategically design synergetic flows of energy in landscapes, homes, cities and societies. Permaculture interconnects elements in systems that before stood in isolation and needed energy to maintain.
Permaculture integrates specialised disciplines such as engineering, architecture, ecology, economics and law to encompass all facets of life into one interwoven self-sustainable system that is both energy efficient and pleasant to live in. By careful observation of natural systems that have evolved since the beginning of time, we can apply universal laws to design ways to live harmoniously on the planet earth.
Ethics of Permaculture:
Care of people
Care of the earth
Return of surplus.
Anything that falls within the three ethics of caring for the earth, caring for people and returning surplus resources to these two ends can be called permaculture. These three simple, but very concise ethics ensure that our activities lead us to sustainability and abundance for all of mankind. That means that all of our activities are ultimately for the benefit of mankind and his environment, and surplus resources are reinvested to these ends.
Permaculture is different. It doesn't merely talk about it, it shows you how. It teaches you how to think sustainably and how you can design permanent systems that can be handed over to your grandchildren's grandchildren. Permaculture shows how you can live independently in a strategic symbiotic relationship that partners with the earth instead of fighting against it. Permaculture is not theory, it is a model of simple, yet practical solutions that anybody can do to improve their life and the environment around them. It is based on decades of scientific research and observation of natural systems that have been around for millennia.

The Founder of Permaculture: Bill Mollison
Permaculture was founded in Australia by Dr. Bill Mollison and David Holmgren in the 1970's to provide sustainable solutions to the world's many problems. It has grown into a movement of millions of people worldwide from projects in rural Africa to urban metropolis.
"There are plenty of fights and adventures to hand; the fight against cold, hunger, poverty, ignorance; overpopulation and greed; adventures in friendship, humanity, applied ecology, and sophisticated design - which would be a far better life than you may be living now, and which would mean a life for our children."
"There is no other path for us than that of cooperative productivity and community responsibility. Take that path, and it will change your life in ways you cannot imagine.”
“Our own personal efforts to effect change may seem insignificant to us but when our actions are combined with the actions of others who are also working towards a more sustainable and healthy world. This is in effect a significant movement toward sustainability.” - Bill Mollison
