We have no business there any more. It’s not going to save you to go in and cut the last old-stand forests.

From latitude 30 degrees to latitude 60, say, you’ve got to have the long axis of the house facing the sun. If the land is cut up into squares, that makes half of all houses wrong if they face the road.

Just get out of there right now, because the lessons you need to learn are there. That’s the last place you’ll find those lessons readable.

The miles-long drifts of sea kelp that float along our coasts may carry hundreds of tons of volcanic boulders held in their roots.

It integrates ecology, landscape, organic gardening, architecture and agro-forestry in creating a rich and sustainable way of living.

Some of them are tribal, and some of them are urban, and so on.
