Habitat includes humans, too. Our habitat includes the familiar - villages and rural communities, cities and suburbs. We are now at a point where we can develop these habitats in one of two ways. The old way, using resources as if they were limitless and disposing of them as if the earth's capacity to mop up the waste was also limitless, or in a new way in which we use our ingenuity to limit this impact. The value is the same whether we are working with rich or poor communities. Earthship Biotecture is one outcome of this new thinking.
Humanity - one species of 30 million - is using 40% of the planet's Net Primary Production (NPP), or total photosynthetic capacity. This is projected to be 80% by 2040.
ZERI's ecological clusters
Industrial ecology has produced methods, like ZERI's 'ecological clusters', which can transform linear polluting industries into cyclical systems which eliminate 'waste'.
Hopeful Wisdom
