Welcome to this week's Permaculture Radio Show with @mountainjewel. Each Tuesday from 4-5 PM EST, meet us on the Global Homesteading Collective Discord to listen live to our radio show wherein we are going through the Permaculture Principles. We're on #5 (out of 12)!
This week was: Use & Value Renewable Resources & Services
Nature has over 4 billion years of evolution to draw upon.
It makes ultimate sense for us to ally with this intelligence and use biological solutions within our systems. This principles reminds us to utilize the free ecosystem services that are available to us if we listen and understand the natural order of things.
In this episode...
We get into practical examples of how we can favor and prioritize biological solutions over nonrenewable ones. Not only does this create more abundance in the long run, it's actually imperative for us humans to shift our ways of being as our Earth's carrying capacity is reacting to our exploitive & consumptive ways. Permaculture is an active step we can take in shifting our systems toward sustainability.
This principle reminds us to let nature take its course is the subtitle of this principles. We benefit when we allow the instincts and behaviors of plants, animals, bacteria and fungi to be put to productive use in our designed systems. If we understand the basics of how natural ecosystems work we can more effectively implement aspects into our human created systems. The key here is working WITH nature.
