Wisdom of Permaculture (Garden, CERN)


(Andrew Millison) How to see the hidden patterns of Nature (that's Mother NatureBuddha Nature not so much)
  • What in the world is "permaculture"?
Permaculture One: Perennial Agra
The book Permaculture One presents unique strategies for creating a food-producing system specifically suited to our needs, whether we garden in our backyard or engage in full-scale farming. By carefully designing a system around functional relationships between plant and animal species we can create a stable "cultivated ecology" suited to local conditions. This book provides a catalog of 130 trees and plants useful to a permaculture system. More

Permaculture is an approach to [sustainable farming] land management and settlement design that adopts arrangements observed in flourishing natural ecosystems. It includes a set of design principles derived using whole-systems thinking.

It applies these principles in fields such as regenerative agriculture, town planning, rewilding, and community resilience.

The term was coined in 1978 by Bill Mollison and David Holmgren, who formulated the concept in opposition to modern industrialized methods, instead adopting a more traditional or "natural" approach to agriculture [1, 2, 3].

We can heal this and go natural. - Really?
Multiple thinkers in the early and mid-20th century explored no-dig gardening, no-till farming, and the concept of "permanent agriculture," which were early inspirations for the field of permaculture [4].

Mollison and Holmgren's work from the 1970s and 1980s led to several books, starting with Permaculture One in 1978, and to the development of the "Permaculture Design Course," which has been one of the main methods of diffusion of permacultural [money-making] ideas [5].

Starting from a focus on land usage in Southern Australia, permaculture has since spread in scope to include other regions and other topics, such as appropriate technology and intentional community (commune) design [6]. More: Permaculture - Wikipedia

But what's reality, really, CERN?

(Julia McCoy) Scientists at CERN discovered a hidden layer beneath reality [samsaric simulation?] -- and it won't disappear. AI can calculate a hidden substrate better than organic human scientists? Are we living in a simulation rather than a base reality?
