Permaculture Design

Multicultural Appreciative Design begins with how we nutritionally feel, nurtured or afflicted, invested or divested, resonant and/or dissonant about a few issues, spiritually healthy and naturally wealthy growing out into more robust global matters. Polycultural win/win outcome strategies follow principles of cooperative economy and regenerative choice-making to improve health care giving and receiving for each humane resident's sacred habitat. ZeroZone is first priority, and then out to spacetime climate periphery. Once we notice and plan past Zone One, Zone Two, Zone Three, and perhaps more, depending on the scale of our restorative justice healing ambitions, we eventually conclude by observing wind and light/shadow patterns, climate trends humid and dry atmospheres, social good humored cultures and nationalism's bad humored partisan blaming and shaming win/lose capital commodified monoculture. ZeroZone interviews ask Who Are You at your healthiest most nutritionally communicating win/win eco-political best, especially in cooperative relationship with Zone One, often defined as those spaces and times visited and felt revisited at least once per day and night. Zone Two, less frequently, maybe once a week. The grocery store, farmer's market, bank, barn, cooperative credit union, compost bin, edible and aesthetically pleasing boundaries, inviting barricades between Zone Two and Zone Three, about once a month, such as ambiguously friendly neighbors. Zone Four, once or twice a year, maybe tracing tentacles out to the dentist's office, the voting booth, church-synagogue-temple-mosque, the state park, the state capital. Zone Five, Climate health v pathology, Polycultural wealth v monoculturing degenerativity, Each of these layered Zones extending out from each ZeroZone individual, couple, family, cooperative humane residents, responsible and responsive green new deal team, restorative justice residential authorities, each Black Lives Matter intentional community, each Green Lives Matter advocacy anthro-pod sharing a home school labor of love Surrounds a ZeroZone cooperative residential development opportunity, Each Permaculture Designer is trained to notice, interview, multiculturally mediate bilaterally resilient left hemisphere and resonant right hemisphere with nonviolent communication win/win relationships of deductive thought and inductive feeling, breathing in from Zones One through XY-polynomial layers while also breathing out ZoneZero feelings and thoughts about healthy v pathological, co-relational, co-passionate climate dialogue, co-operative discernment of global integrity's timeless potential for democratic health, win/win felt more-- By the indirect way, than pathological outcomes win/lose left hemisphere dominant either/or individualistic salvation thinking, less.
