Permies are trained on a PDC to be cooperative not competitive, to spread knowledge and make the principles available to all to use.

This can be done in “over the fence chats”, community groups, lectures, courses or any other ways suitable to the situation. Often initial knowledge and skills are usually passed on for free and eventually some have the skills to teach or design for a fee, this is usually offset by some community work and talks which also increases your skills and visibility in the community that may one day pay  for your specialist skills.

Most good Permies would only take a % from the system that sustains it, this is up to the individual. Examples such as Organic Agriculture, where the system should only take no more than about 80% of the nutrients added; the remainder goes to rebuilding a healthy system, over time this increases in resources so therefore the yield can increase as well.

We should be building well planned and executed systems and keeping records so anecdotal evidence can be made available in the future along with public entry to good examples to show how things can work. The best of these will fill the need for sustainability, productivity & multiple yields and still meet our current desire for aesthetics at the same time with examples for all size scales within a local city or country area.
