permaculture

[Jim <ashevillecurrencyproject@gmail.com>]

"So, we do have a kind of a stark choice now, between a mass extinction 
event and permaculture;
and given such a choice, I think all but a small /Gotterdamerung/ crowd 
will choose permaculture and work for it.

You could say that science is one name for that work."
