SANTA BARBARA PERMACULTURE NETWORK
Presents:
Permaculture in the 21st Century
With David Holmgren
Tuesday, Aug 2, 2005
Evening Lecture 7- 9pm
Santa Barbara City College Campus Center
East Campus (Cafeteria)
In the 21st Century many challenges face us. We live in a world of
unprecedented wealth from harvesting enormous storages of fossil fuels
created by the earth over billions of years. In a world where this source
of energy begins to decline, what innovative ways will we use to design a
sustainable future?
On Tuesday, August 2, at 7pm, the Santa Barbara Permaculture Network hosts
David Holmgren from Australia in his only Southern California appearance
for a talk on Permaculture in the 21st Century, and a booksigning for his
recently released book "Permaculture: Principles & Pathways Beyond
Sustainability". An all day workshop with David Holmgren and other regional
permaculture teachers will also be held from 9-5pm.
Holmgren is a permaculture designer and consultant, whose most recent work
has focused on global permaculture strategies addressing the issue of
"energy descent", a concept that acknowledges a future of reduced fossil
fuels, but plans within a framework of gradual transition and adaptive
strategies. In drawing links to permaculture, in future design for homes,
cities, and agriculture, lessons learned will need to be applied
everywhere, rather than just First World versus Third World type situations.
Permaculture is a design system based on ecological principles for creating
sustainable human environments, and is one of the most holistic, integrated
systems analysis and design methodologies found in the world. Originally
coined from the words PERMAnent agriCULTURE, it has evolved to one of
permanent or sustainable culture with consciously designed landscapes that
mimic the patterns of nature.
David Holmgren (www.holmgren.com.au) is a designer and consultant, and
co-originator of the permaculture concept with Australian biologist Bill
Mollison, and co-author of "Permaculture One" (1978), a milestone in the
application of environmental design to productive land use. Since 1978 he
has authored numerous articles and several books, conducted workshops and
courses, and consulted for urban and rural projects in Australia and New
Zealand. His most recent book, "Permaculture:Principles and Pathways Beyond
Sustainability", provides a broad conceptual framework for permaculture
design education.
The event is a fundraiser for the Santa Barbara Permaculture Network, and
takes place at the Santa Barbara City College Campus Center (East Campus),
721 Cliff Drive, on Tuesday, August 2.
The lecture & booksigning, 7-9pm, cost is $15.
