As the planet comes under more threat from unenvironmentally friendly cultures then what terms should we use to describe them and distinguish ourselves ?
common sense(won't label it an 'ism as it sued to be the norm'), very rare these days just not common at all, all to do with the dumbing down in the indoctrinated education system, and not getting locked up in boxes and comfort zones len
In my opinion the opposite of permaculture is conventional method. It souldn't be but it is. I think permaculture should be the conventional method, and non permaculture the alternative. We just have to keep spreading the word until it becomes conventional wisdom.
One is "Ecological" the other is "Ecoillogical" if "Eco" represents the environment. There seems to be an obsession about the growth of economies and yet little consideration of duration of economies - permaculture makes sense on so many levels !
I never understood that either...how can anything in a finite world have infinite(and quick) growth and survive? Either way, my vote is for Tempculture. I know, it's corny.
