ホワイトハウス主催の学生活動コンクールで
パーマカルチャー活動を行っている学生団体が
現在トップ候補になっています。
オバマ大統領が【パーマカルチャー】を耳に
した事があるのでしょうか？
なくてもこれでかれもパーマカルチャーを
知る事になります。
しかも学生から教わるという所がいいですね。
MTVでも放映されるそうなので、
アメリカではパーマカルチャーがどんどん
一般の方に知られるようになってきました。
日本でも大衆に広まっていくと良いですよね。
４月から東大でもパーマカルチャーを広めて
行こうと思っています。
権力者をパーミー（パーマカルチャー実践者）に
変身させていくぞ！
情報は国際パーマカルチャーネットワークから
送られてきました。オーストラリアのPRI
（パーマカルチャー研究機構）が
運営しているネットワークみたいです。
Just got this from the Worldwide Permaculture Network.
I don't know if Obama has ever heard permaculture,
but it looks like he is going to hear about it now.
...and I always love me some student activists educating
el presidente on how to live sustainably.
Permaculture on MTV means new challenges and opportunities.
Lets make sure permaculture doesn't turn into a Ché shirt.
From the Permaculture Research Institute:
I’ve got some incredible news to share with you! The permaculture initiative that I facilitate at the University of Massachusetts Amherst (USA) has been selected by the White House as a finalist for the Campus Champions of Change Challenge award! This means we are in the final round and the general public is now voting for which teams will get a trip to the White House (judges selected 15 projects from more than 1000 applications!) The top 5 winners also get featured on a television program called ‘The Deans List’ on MTV.
Imagine the potential this has! This is by far the most important thing that I can be doing for the world right now — I truly feel that in my heart.
We have only 1 week to tally as many votes as we can – voting ends Saturday, March 3 at 11:59PM est (New York time!) Here’s a short description about the student group that I oversee, and how to vote:
UMass Amherst Permaculture is a student group that educates the University of Massachusetts Amherst campus and the local community about ecological permaculture solutions by demonstrating edible perennial landscapes that are highly productive, low maintenance, environmentally sustainable, and socially responsible!
