Permaculture is about looking at ways to integrate many different elements into a sustainable way of living. So, even though we might not go into great detail in every subject area (we would need three months), we do delve into many areas and look for ways they interrelate with each other.

The goal is to design systems that allow us to live abundantly well while also eliminating wastes, increasing yields, minimizing unnecessary work, and caring for the total environment. We must design ways of living that care for nature, ensuring the necessary resources for future generations.
