"This is a species level moment. And I think we get so insulated looking at the bizarro situation in the United States on so many levels," he says. "We forget we're only four and a half percent of the world population, and there's lots of other countries that are adapting and responding to world challenges"

On this episode, permaculture expert and educator Andrew Millison joins us to unpack how we can better design our societal infrastructure and agriculture to be more attuned with the water, solar, and “geomorphic” conditions of our surroundings. When critical resources become scarce, it is more important than ever that communities learn to do more with less. By focusing on resiliency and stability through systems thinking, permaculture is a design system which does just that. In a world that often feels beyond our control, how can we use permaculture design to work with the land rather than against it, and regain agency in our local food, water, and social systems?
