A Russian Warning. “A Looming Third World War”

Dear friends and family,

Nobody likes to hear news of impending doom, but perhaps if enough Americans are aware of what is happening we might avoid doom.  I have been following Dmitry Orlov for about 5 years now and consider him one of the most astute world commentators at this time.  I have been following the Saker for about 2 years now.  I consider him one of the best sources of information on the Ukraine, the Middle East and Russia. I recommend following both of their websites and reading this article which they have both signed on to.

Syntropic Agriculture

Here is a youtube of a guy in Brazil that has come up with something he calls Syntropic Agriculture.  Very much along the lines of permaculture and analog forestry. Great example of a large-scale system (1200 acres). Ecologically and economically looks good.  Some of it is pretty straight-lined but some looks wilder. "Life in Syntropy" is the new short film from Agenda Gotsch made specially to be presented at COP21 - Paris. This film put together some of the most remarkable experiences in Syntropic Agriculture, with brand new images and interviews.
 

Permaculture Strategies Applied to some North American Landscapes: Cross-country on Amtrak

Michael Pilarski – January 6, 2009

 

I am in the process of traveling by train from the West Coast to the East Coast and back again. Here is a report on my east-bound trip. I spend most of the daylight hours observing the landscapes I pass through. In much of them I observe paradise lost and think about how permaculture could help make these areas more productive again. From west to east here are the major eco-regions I passed through with some observations and suggestions.

 

Northern Rocky Mountains.
