Permaculture seeks to meet basic
human needs while regenerating and sustaining natural systems. It
is a design system rooted firmly in applied ecology, proven sustainable
practices, and observation of living systems.
In an
evening talk on Friday, February 26, 6:30 -9 pm, at the Fe
Bland Auditorium SBCC West Campus, David White will share how
Permaculture provides us with the tools to make our lifestyle, living
space and community part of the solution while maintaining a high quality
of life. Join David White as he shares the concepts of permaculture for
large and small landscapes, and describes what makes permaculture design
unique.
David
White received his BA in Biological Science and PhD in Medicine at the
Edinburgh University. He performed post doctoral research at Cornell
Medical School before moving to Ojai California, where he helped run an
organic farm and became involved in many environmental organizations
including Keep the Sespe Wild. He is currently the executive
director of the Center for Regenerative Agriculture
(www.ojaicra.org)
in Ojai CA. He studied Permaculture with Bill Mollison in 1997, and
has been introducing permaculture into classrooms, curriculums, and his
