Who has time to watch an hour long presentation on permaculture? Me, Mr Mom. I recomend putting this on in the background while doing something else, unless this is your thing. If that is the case you will enjoy this talk by Toby Hemenway. If you cant be bothered then here are some notes i took.

. Unpacks the buzz word “sustainability”

    - the hierarchy of needs

. Puts Permaculture in human historical context

. Challenges ideas about agriculture

. Defines Civilization and separates it from being human

. Places food as the paramount effect on culture

. Foraging

. Horticulture

. Agriculture

   -Pastoral, Industrial

. Permaculture stikes a balance between foraging and Horticulture (gardening)
