Ethics

Definition

The three core values of permaculture: Earth Care, People Care, Fair Share. These are the compass for all design decisions.

Interpretation

Ethics are the soil from which design grows. They remind us that design without care is just exploitation dressed up in cleverness. Earth Care roots us. People Care connects us. Fair Share redistributes the surplus. Together, they are the heartbeat of regeneration.

Living Invitation

Look at one choice today (what you eat, how you move, what you buy). Does it serve Earth Care, People Care, and Fair Share? If not, how could you shift it?
