Permaculture Ethics

Permaculture is unique amongst the sciences because above all it is an ethical system. Permaculture ethics are:
Care of the Earth (including all life),
Care of People
& Fair Shares for All.

In this short excerpt from the award winning documentary film about the suffering of animals for food, fashion, pets, entertainment and medical research, the truth about our connection with our fellow earthlings is revealed in graphic detail.

We are not the center of the world.

Organic balanced plant diet is most healthiest food for human beings, but we grow more plants for Animals to feed and slaughter them, then we grow ourself in our garden. Most sicknesses is causes Animal diet and man-made synthetic hybrid genetic manipulated consumer products, consumer waste and energy sources technology pollutions. Its possible to live in complete harmony and balance of our must inner human nature.

I do not agree. Eating animals is not an injustice on the level of the Holocaust. It is insensitive to talk that way.

The breeds that exist within the farm that are slaughtered cannot exist out side farm. Further they are not tortured to death. In a small farming culture they live content to an age past what they live to in the wild.

All permaculture makes use of living animals - we eat because of a food chain that involves living organisms and their death.

"For the animal shall not be measured by man.

In a world older and more complete than our own they move

finished and complete, gifted with extensions of senses we have lost

or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear.

They are brethren, not underlings; they are other nations caught

with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the

travail and splendour of the earth."

Henry Beston

we all eat each other, thats the basic fact of life on earth. However we have moral as humans, therefeor we cant inflict more pain than is necessary to contiunue the cycle of life!

[Hal2222222]

A gigabyte to heave ourselves over into consciousness. This truth we see is stronger than some, and even I turn away from the dark.  IT is a video of polarities and extremes. Still, the line that connects them is to be recognized and understood, like the understanding that we are both the center of our individual Universi and yet a tiny point among the many/i. Thanks

What a wake up call

I will never look at another whopper the same way.

ATWA Air Trees Water Animals.

All the world around ...

And then we awoke

at the worlds appaCOALypse

I wonder if OB eats organic, all natural and free range.

[bbbleaver]

it's not humans or humanity that dominates the earth but merely one culture amoung the thousands and thousands of human cultures that exist. just this one dominator culture (that spans east to west). and this ONE culture is not representative of all humans and especially not of humanity. these farming/city building materialist who judge all others : to be "sentient" or "conscious", murders, good and bad, high or low on some imagined scale.

We are on the same channel...I also have turned my attention to the larges issues of late. I belive the next step should be the formal creation of transitional communities with government funding and land...to be constructed as models for society at large.
