<ul><li>As well as providing the tools to create greater sustainability within our lifestyles, home environments, gardens and on our land, permaculture is just as importantly about finding ways of mending community and rebuilding our fragmented society.
<li>Every time we spend a pound in a chainstore or supermarket, 80p goes straight out of the community, swallowed up by costs of transport, packaging and advertising or straight into the coffers of the transnational corporations. And when we put our money into a high street bank we often have no way of knowing what will happen to it, whether it will be invested in interests like arms trading, factory farming, genetic engineering, the tobacco industry, speculation against �Third World� currencies or whatever.</ul>
