Ethics of Permaculture

As a student of Sustainable Food & Farming and Landscape Architecture at the University of Massachusetts, I admire the principles and ethics of Permaculture. The more I learn about this approach of systems design, the more I believe it would be useful for us to utilize this approach in many areas of our lives, for example social permaculture.

Ethics of Permaculture

  1. Earth Care
  2. People Care
  3. Fair Share

Ethics of Permaculture

The ethical approach of Permaculture is only the beginning. Followed by design principles and seven different domains on how to create a sustainable culture. I am not an expert in Permaculture (yet), so if you want to learn more, visit the following website.

Permaculture & Holistic Health

As I mentioned, I am not an expert. However, I do believe to understand enough to know that we can also apply those principles and the ethical approach to our own body and our health (communal and/or personal). My own experience has taught me that we simply feel better when we are caring and kind individuals – when stay away from an egocentric way of life. Permaculture teaches us exactly that; to not only focus on oneself but to see our surrounding. We learn how we can be part of the whole; functioning within this web of life and contribute to the health of the Earth and all other creatures who roam this planet. For some people, this may seem a little out there. But don’t you appreciate when someone shares a smile with you, a kind word, or a nice gesture? This can go both ways and it seems that nature can help us with this more grounded and less anxious lifestyle.

In fact, I did write a paper about this, titled: “The Relation between Permaculture, Human Health & Holistic Well-being. How Body, Mind and Spirit Can Heal through the Application of Systems Design.”
