The Sticky 3rd Ethic of Permaculture
Permaculture has 3 Ethics. The first two – Earth Care, and People Care – are fairly self-explanatory and widely accepted. The third ethic, however, can be contentious – evoking strong emotional responses.
So do we call it “Fair Share”? “Share the Surplus”? Or a new phrase I’ve heard tossed around for the past few years, “Future Care”? Why does it matter, and how does it impact our permaculture?
