We have got to float the Permaculture canoe into the rapids of the mainstream, and the way we get there is through the mainstream. We have the keys. The question remains: what doors are we willing to open? What threshold are we willing to cross?
Each second is before us in each second and the only cure for ongoing collapse is to collapse into it and “go where no Permaculture practitioner has gone before”. After all, who is holding the strings, and who will have the courage to cut them with a grafting knife? We are an “industry” in the making and we need standards, protocols. How can we change the “law” without them?
This glorious Permaculture system is not limited by fractious or dogmatic, isolated or fundamentalist segments of the population. It crosses all borders, all fragmented and synthetic, political borders, all bioregions. It is truly “Holistic”. It will take us into the thirty-story apartment building and out on to the farthest plane. Permaculture is growing by leaps and bounds, and as we know, the yields are unlimited. We need a face for the populace. This movement has got wings. Let’s get rid of the “DDT” so that we can soar together.
