David Holmgren, Keynote Speaker at APC13
David will be speaking on “Retrosuburbia: revitalising the landscapes and communities that will raise the next generation”. His talk will focus on the following questions:
- Why retrofitting, not new build, should be the focus of most permaculture design.
- Why the suburbs should be the focus of most permaculture design.
- Why building better households rather than houses should be a strategic focus of permaculture activism.
- Why garden and urban agriculture has such a strong future in a world of climate chaos, peak energy and economic contraction.
David will highlight a very diverse range of DIY action in the suburbs with and without the permaculture label.
