Thinking about how we get Calories from the land limits human population densities.
khanacademy.org - great video, very educational
MY BRAINSTORM COMMENTS...
Nature requires a balance of species , including humans...
Sustainability becomes a question... Living in harmony with nature becomes a question...
Challenge is to educate grassroots to realize the problems with the present agriculture methods...
With an educated grassroots then local solutions can be generated around the world...
If the educated locals realize population is too great, you would hope that they would self correct.
BASIC PROBLEM is education of masses... Buy-in to permaculture / polyculture mindset to find solutions...
Maybe Khan's education methods / YouTube videos could be applied to permaculture education of young and old...
Permaculture university . org ... Lots and lots of short videos over time.... Might speed education of the masses and permaculture solutions world wide.

I actually think permaculture/polo copping etc will ultimately be adopted because of the economics.
ReplyDeleteI think the switch will be very organic. Early adopters (like yourself) will show that the ideas work and are financially viable.
Other farmers can see a real farm in operation and how it works in practice, rather than theory.
Keep documenting what your doing, hard facts cannot be refuted.
Thanks for positive comments.
ReplyDeleteI think you are right. We will keep trying this new paradigm.
