Overview

"You've probably seen news reports about how humans are ruining the environment and how, if we don't take action soon, the impacts of global warming will be permanent. The Consultative Group on International Agriculture Research claims that modern agriculture is one of the main sources of carbon dioxide emissions, accounting for up to a third of all emissions when combined with forests. The weather is becoming more erratic than you recall it being when you were a child, and cracks are beginning to appear. You are aware that to address this, we must move quickly and together. You've reduced your consumption of meat and plastic. Yet you feel like doing more. You are concerned about the environment and are aware that humans are ruining the earth. What else might you do to assist? ""Though the problems of the world are more complex, the solutions remain embarrassingly simple,"" as noted permaculturist Bill Mollison once put it. Permaculture is a method of using natural systems and processes to help you get the most out of your garden while using nature to take care of the majority of the watering, fertilizing, and pest management for you. Permaculture principles can help you get the most out of your garden whether you live in an apartment or are the proud owner of a sizable piece of land. However, permaculture is not simply about gratification for oneself. Additionally, saving the environment is a concern. This summer, even if you can only grow your own strawberries and tomatoes, you can still reduce your carbon footprint because there is no need for transportation, logistics, pesticides, or fertilizers-just your own organic fruit and veggies. You can achieve your goal of living sustainably and doing your part to protect the planet's future by learning about permaculture and adopting it into your life. You'll discover the following in ""Creating your Permaculture Heaven"" the fundamental ideas behind permaculture; how to utilise all of the water that is provided to us; Why soil is essential to human life and how we may feed it the nutrients it needs to produce all of our beautiful fruit and vegetables; How to prevent those obnoxious slugs from eating your gorgeous green crops; certain plants coexist peacefully and which are repulsed by one another's presence; How to achieve your goal of creating a food forest with your favorite fruits and vegetables How to increase the benefits of your garden so that you can earn a little additional pocket money; how to make honey or how to get bees into your garden And a lot more..... You can use the enjoyable exercises at the conclusion of each chapter as a free bonus to put what you've learned into practice. You could believe that you lack the time or resources to launch a significant permaculture project. However, permaculture doesn't have to be intimidating. You can move at a speed that works for you and start as slowly or as quickly as you'd like. Don't feel as though you need to learn everything at once and race to clear an entire wilderness in a single year. Deal with things in small bits, and you'll be OK. All it takes is a little time, patience, and experience to become an expert gardener, even if all you've done is take care of a few tomato plants on your window ledge. And keep in mind that we have all erred at some point. That is how we develop and get better at gardening. One day, it's possible that we'll be able to assist others, which would be a wonderful bonus."
