One definition I like for permaculture is “a system of solutions”. Simple, clear and positive. Lacking a sense of fun admittedly.

Thanks for your work in providing this. I’ll listen to some more episodes over the days and weeks ahead.

I will be thinking about your definition of permaculture. I like that you used the word “fun” in yours because a) permaculture is fun and b) it adds a positive flavor to the “sell” of permaculture in light of of the problems it starts to solve. (That’s why I like the Peter Bain definition) Such as the energy descent issue, industrial agricultural destruction of the soil and water, etc. I find that these are real buzz kill issues for people to consider and sometimes I can get too focused describing problems and the conversation ends with a bitter taste. So lets be left with thoughts of fun, common sense, simplicity, letting nature be nature, less toll….Best, Troy
