permaculture

[Raymond Cirirno <permaquest@yahoo.com>]

Dear Rael,
Since sustainability is illegal and our countries blue print for the future 
sucks, I have felt that all that we are doing here may be torn down, but we 
will get major media and community to show we are doing what's right. What we 
are doing is law in most parts of the world. This is the time to stand up and 
fight.
If we have to tear it down at least we would have made it to show the right 
people how wrong our laws are now and we should be asking thenm to tear their 
system down.

Could you explain about
 >> creating everything from gray water to composting toilets without 
stinking permits.

Did you get special zoning?

Your first project is a great design!!. If the canopy of the 
"Butterfly water catchment and garden" included a translucent PV 
layer, it could be called "Butterfly water/solar-power catchment and garden."

If you haven't seen or heard Darren Doherty of Australia Felix Permaculture
-do yourself a favor and check out his website. His informative and
entertaining lectures offer hard data and outline promising research and
studies of carbon sequestration, top soil building and more.  See
Doherty'simpressive work and schedule of events at
www.permaculture.biz

Bill Mollison has touted the land management strategies and introduced many
of us to the pioneering work of P.A. Yeomans... and as we (should) know,
Mollison brilliantly made Keyline Design a compulsory part of the
Permaculture Design Certificate Course Curriculum.
