Trees are like natural air conditioners, pollution absorbers, wind
and dust buffers and great water pumps. They cool the earth by providing
shade and recycling water. The seed clouds by letting shaking off dust
and fungi. “By cooling the air and ground around them, the shade from
trees helps cool the earth’s temperature overall. Trees also help
moderate the earth’s rainfall, which also helps keep the temperature
cooler. Forests help to make sure we get rain. Trees absorb a lot of
water from the soil for nourishment. Later, when the sun shines on the
trees, water is released from the leaves and absorbed back into the
atmosphere – just like the water is absorbed from our bathing suits.
When the sun’s energy removes water from the earth’s surface, the water
collects into clouds, and when the clouds are heavy with water they
release rain back to the earth.”
www.ecokids.ca/pub/eco_info/topics/forests/benefits_of_trees.cfm<br />
Trees serve many functions. They serve the forest, the wider region
and the animals. Trees are Giagantic oxygen pumps that are fuelled by
free solar energy. They serve much more than just themselves.</div>

Although the environmental problems are very complex, the solution is
embarrassingly simple. We need to move from being consumers to being
producers. Every effort we make to meet our needs ourselves, empowers
us, builds skills and understanding and a chance to work with nature and
choose to harness natural energies.<br />

you for a wonderful experience at Permaculture Visions. I was
pleasantly surprised to see the tremendous amount of information you
provide and the level of detail you offer in your modules. </em><em>At
first I wondered how a hands-on subject such as Permaculture would work
in an online format, but I quickly found that you provided so much
information and guidance that I was able to successfully implement the
concepts in my </em><em>own living space and really make the most of my experience. Your feedback on my assignments was always </em><em>helpful and y</em><em>our
thought-provoking questions made me think things through where I needed
to. All in all a great experience. Thanks again. Blyth McManus

Some people like to start now building skills and knowledge in a
healthy lifestyle. Permaculture is not about a return to peasantry
labour. It is about designing a healthy lifestyle for yourself and your
community. It encourages a search for connections between people and
their food. Permaculture is only half about where and what we do. The
social side of Permaculture is invisible but just as important.<br />
When we build skills to enjoy interdependence we lighten our load on the environment and other people.<br />

Design using Zoning helps us place elements where they are needed according to level of observation and attention.
In Permaculture we break the design up into Zones according to the amount of attention each area requires
Zone 0 – Home = indoor production (sprouts/ferments) and processing of food, waste,
water collection, repairs and education.
Zone 1 – Area outdoors needing regular observation tending and harvesting
eg. plants we can browse and use each day.- intensive garden beds with keyhole access.
Zone 2. Less intensive managed areas but with animals needing daily attention
eg. poultry, rabbits, worm farm, snail farm. Orchard trees.
Zone 3 Occassionally visited areas with self-fed animals (stock) and seasonal wide ranging crops
eg. corn, wheat, rice, pumpkin, bamboo
Zone 4. Wild food gathering (eg. nuts, native fruits) Wood for Fuel, self seeding trees
Zone 5. Natural area – a rarely visited area. linked with neighbouring wildlife corridors.
Sometimes managed to reduce risk of catastrophes ie. fire/pollution/drought/hurricane.
