My passion is permaculture and I want to show that it is more than just gardening. It is ethical design for everything in our life.
I live in Czech republic.

And if you live in a apartament and you cannot plant trees, you can have flowers and even herbs or vegetable. Maybe not big for planet but definitely big joy 🌱
How we can improve our cities: Plant lots of trees. Trees produce oxygen, store CO2, reduce pollution, help protect from flooding, reduce city temps, provide habitats for wildlife & help to beautify surroundings. "The true meaning of life is to plant trees under whose shade you do not expect to sit"

Last week I taught Dragon Dreaming method to group of teachers. And it was awesome. They came so many ideas. Unfortunately it was not real project, it was only for this training because I would like to be part of such project
:-).
The participants agreed that I can publish here this picture.

Bring back the wetlands to reduce fire severity. Fire smart landscapes must include wetlands. Protect, restore, reclaim wet soils.

A single 400-year-old ancient oak produces 234,000 litres of oxygen a year while soaking up carbon dioxide, and can support more than 2,000 species of bird, insect, fungus, and lichen. Nature is amazing - we need more of it, not less. Please repost if you agree 🌳
