Tamil Permaculture
An abbreviation of the phrase 'permanent agriculture', the word originally referred to a method of cultivating the land without causing harm to humans or the environment; all this while remaining economically viable and sustainable in the long term.
The ultimate aim of permaculture is to create societies in which nature and humans are treated with respect. This concept applies to all spheres of human activity but concerns, above all, our homes and energy sources, our relationship with the natural world and, of course, how we produce food (which forms the basis of any sustainable human society).
Tamil Permaculture is based on a foundation of three basic principles:
Looking after planet Earth,
Taking care of humankind,
And dividing resources equally.
