Regenerative Ethics
Regenerative Design operates on a cyclical basis by emphasizing regenerative ethics within permaculture. Here, we will discuss the 3 ethics of permaculture and how they operate on a regenerative, cyclical basis.
The 3 Ethics
Care of The Earth
Care of Community
Care of Balance
Care of The Earth
In order to ethically design systems in regards to The Earth, it is important to understand how to integrate your garden with the surrounding ecosystem.
By creating naturally occurring positive feedback loops, we can create a thriving ecosytem that works with nature instead of against it.
Care of Community
When generating urban gardens and farm projects, providing economic stability can be just as important as the basics of food security.
Creating a circular economy within the community can be achieved when people are active within the supply chain that provides for their local businesses.
Care of Balance
The balance of the cycle of production by neither overproducing or underproducing can generate thriving cycles of regeneration.
Balance can be achieved when production is focused on the output for a specific goal and the “waste” produced can be reused for another purpose.
