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.
