			"For many people, myself included, the above conception of permaculture is so global in its
			scope that its usefulness is reduced. More precisely, I see permaculture as the use of systems
			thinking and design principles that provide the organising framework for implementing the
			above vision. It draws together the diverse ideas, skills and ways of living which need to be
			rediscovered and developed in order to empower us to provide for our needs, while increasing
			the natural capital for future generations.

			In this more limited but important sense, permaculture is not the landscape, or even the
			skills of organic gardening, sustainable farming, energy efficient building or eco-village
			development as such, but it can be used to design, establish, manage and improve these and all
			other efforts made by individuals, households and communities towards a sustainable future."

			From co-founder of Permaculture David Holmgren.

Permaculture is built upon an ethic of caring for the earth and interacting with the environment in mutually beneficial ways.		-Permaculture: the use of ecology as the basis for designing integrated systems of food production, housing, appropriate technology, and community development.

	To paraphrase the founder of permaculture, designer Bill Mollison:		To paraphrase the co-founder of permaculture, designer Bill Mollison:

	-Permaculture principles focus on thoughtful designs for small-scale intensive systems which are labor efficient and which use biological resources instead of fossil fuels. Designs stress ecological connections and closed energy and material loops. The core of permaculture is design and the working relationships and connections between all things. Each component in a system performs multiple functions, and each function is supported by many elements. Key to efficient design is observation and replication of natural ecosystems, where designers maximize diversity with polycultures, stress efficient energy planning for houses and settlement, using and accelerating natural plant succession, and increasing the highly productive "edge-zones" within the system.		-Permaculture principles focus on thoughtful designs for small-scale intensive systems which are labor efficient and which use biological resources instead of fossil fuels.
