This weeks lecture was presented by Nick Ritar from Milkwood Permaculture.
Milkwood is a small organic farm near Mudgee in central NSW. It was all about basically sustainably providing for human needs which Nick recognised there to be three important things that must be followed. These include:
1. CARE FOR EARTH
2. CARE FOR EACH OTHER
3. SET LIMITS ON CONSUMPTION
With these in mind we can create a sustainable world without causing as much waste as what the population is creating now. He spoke a lot about how human waste is flushed out to sea although it could be used as a good fertiliser, proposing the design task of creating a more circular system so that human waste can be transformed into something thats not completely wasted.
This was a interesting lecture which directly hit us with a problem that needs to be solved!
