The thoughtless introduction of potentially invasive species may upset natural balances in your home area.

RETURN Law of Return: Whatever we take, we must return – the user must pay. Nature demands a return for every gift received. 2. WITHHOLD Growth: “Like war, growth at any cost is an outmoded and discredited concept. It is our lives which are being laid to waste. What is worse, it is our children’s world which is being destroyed. It is therefore our only possible decision to withhold all support for destructive systems, and to cease to invest our lives in our own annihilation. 3. MANAGE RESPONSIBILITY Policy of Resources Management: A responsible human society bans the use of resources which permanently reduce yields of sustainable resources e.g. pollutants, persistent poisons, radio actives large areas of concrete and highways, sewers from city to sea.

  PERMACULTURE COURSE AGRO - ECONOMY PDC LESSON 1.0 PRINCIPLES – LIST, PERMANENT AGRICULTURE     Bill Mollison is the founder of Permaculture and together with a student of his by the name of David Holmgren; they coined the word Permaculture and evolved a whole new design concept based on traditional agriculture. The objective was to ensure a sustainable way of growing food with multiple yields in a system that will eventually support itself. This was in the mid- seventies and since then Permaculture has grown to become a global concept that sees solutions within the great environmental and social crisis that we experience today.   There are the three ethics that Permaculture identifies with   Care of Earth; Care of People; Care of Animals;     PRINCIPLE OF …… 1.1                  Energy Input 1.2                 Energy Cycling 1.3                 Energy Efficiency 1.4                Stability 1.5                Multifunctionality 1.6                S
