----- About this sharing ----- Permaculture’s co-founder and the author of the book "RetroSuburbia", David Holmgren, has thrown out a challenge to all of us – can we adapt in place, and thrive? Can we imagine a resilient future for our street or apartments? How do we make that happen? No-one has all the answers.
The intention of this sharing is to help people access this new book and website RetroSuburbia.com. David writes: "within your own household, you are in familiar territory - where you can learn and build on past experience. Without strong households, it's hard to have strong communities."
RetroSuburbia is “Permaculture 3.0” The early days of permaculture were about people ‘getting back to the land’, the second phase was about Transition to better community. RetroSuburbia learns from both of those phases and gives us a "Pattern Handbook" for Resilience Households.
Ian will work with the participants to explore what permaculture has to offer to help with the problems of our times; especially knowing that we cannot re-build everything from a blank sheet. We are in the business of Retro-fitting: both our buildings and our habits.

Bellissimo articolo che propone un modo più consapevole di scoprire la Russia, valorizzando cultura, storia e diritti umani. Mi piace questo approccio al viaggio. Anche sul mio sito Noti Timba condivido contenuti interessanti.
