A lively conversation with Natalie Topa a Regenerative Permaculture Designer working internationally on a broad range of projects, providing humanitarian Permaculture design services for displaced people, in Africa, Myanmar and the Middle East. Natalie and I discuss her background in Urban Planning and Economics and how her work is aligned with much of our regional focus.We touch on Naomi Klein and policies for Solutionaries. Natalie shares apartment and city living methods for permaculture lifestyles and the need for policy change and not so much is the need to provide different services but rather to be providing services differently. We discuss Vandana Shiva, Eco-Feminism & Natural Building and the need for socio-cultural levels for change . Natalie will be guest teaching in our upcoming Permaculture Certification course

In the discussion referenced on impacts of the grid- NIH data abt. power lines proximity-
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4931365/
"Results:
For leukaemia, there was a slight excess of cases within 50 m of a transmission line over 200 kV (odds ratio 1.4, 95% confidence interval 0.7–2.7). There was no evidence of increased risk for distances beyond 50 m, for lower-voltage lines, or for CNS cancers."
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1128834/
"This meta-analysis tends to confirm the presence of an association between exposure to magnetic fields and leukaemia among people who reside in the vicinity of high voltage transmission electric lines of > or = 49 kV. There is consistency across studies. Measures of exposure used in the studies were either distance from the lines or calculated fields estimated from pertinent line features. The results apply to adults as well as to children." -
Here I go into some of my favorite ancient sites and to balance the bogus science behind a popular series called Apocalypse. The books I read from are first Gobeki Tepe by Avi Bachenheimer, next is a reading from Early Humans By Nick Ashton, and wrapping up with a reading from Brian Fagan's book The Long Summer: How Climate Changed Civilization.
