Please Get Behind Our Efforts to Demonstrate Sustainable Development and Relief for Chile Quake/Tsunami Victims
Editor’s Preamble:
Permaculturists famously endeavour to ‘turn the problem into a solution’. At the moment we have a tremendous opportunity to apply this principle in wonderful, productive ways in disaster-hit Chile.
Helping the First World Reduce its Ecological Footprint
While Vandana Shiva was in Berlin recently promoting her book ‘Soil Not Oil’, Andreas Teuchert and Thomas Finger of Transition Berlin,
who were filming the event, spontaneously asked her for her thoughts on
what the Transition Towns movement could do that is of real use for
people in the global south.
She said that “the most important pressure the people in the south face
is the grabbing of their resources to feed a consumer machinery in the
north.” She points out that while there are a number of products that
the north can’t provide such as spices, coffee and cotton, fresh
vegetables are the reason that poor peasants are losing their land.
