permaculture

["wenshidi@yahoo.co.uk" <wenshidi@yahoo.co.uk>]

As an avid fan of science fiction and fantasy, I was wondering if there is 
any permaculture based writing out there.  I know that there is a lot of 
dystopian stuff, but I am curious to know if any writers have picked up on 
the sustainability thread and started to run with it yet?
I was thinking maybe some druidic high fantasy, maybe with a Bill Mollison 
Type figure as the Arch Druid, or perhaps some off world colonisation when 
all the permaculture principles are put into place right from the get go.
Has anybody seen anything like this yet, or am I just going to have to write 
my own? 

Chris

Well, you may want to read this just-in news bulletin first and make
your plans accordingly:

'This is Radio R'lyeh calling..'Radio R'lyeh...........

Base station detects warning beacon, aurora borealis attacked by
shapeshifter and has morphed into transparent images of beings(?) with
the dreaded Innsmouth Look. Display appears and disappears at phased
intervals of 66.897 seconds around the clock(Old Arkham time).
Spaceship Earth has been reduced to a colony of Kabalites appearing to
lack the usual individual motivation and guidance apparatus.
Permaculturists are the only remaining survivors on site able to deduce
and reason though I do not know how long they can maintain their
invulnerability to the spreading plague of sea monkeys that seems to
have absorbed and digested the minds of the other inhabitants.
I think we will probably need to deploy our remaining supply of rugose
cones for perimeter defense. Stay tuned for further news bulletins.
