Along those lines, I am not sure about this fully automated, techtopia
thing.
Wouldn't the self-enfolding of food be permaculture instead of
robot-farming?
Is it per se? I think these are pretty individual decisions. I could
imagine both.
But decisions of the plants and animals? Or absolute human domination of
the non-human without consideration as to their self-enfolding?
Don't get me wrong, I am not saying we can live without killing plants and
animals (ok, maybe without animals), but self-enfolding is a quality of all
nature. It seems a noble guesture to try to maximize it. Not only that but
it would have similar benefits - minimizing the labor necessary to produce
food and other benefits. Perma-culture aims to work optimally with the
self-enfolding of plants and animals.
Food for thought, bioponics is the idea of growing fish and plants
together, feeding off each other, - off each others self-enfolding and
humans feeding off their collective self-enfolding.
