Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Agricultural Programs, Food
Mission: The corporation will explore the relationships among the many species that make up the living system of human habitats, seek to understand the processes that make up healthy habitats, and to use that knowledge to design, test, and teach people about living systems that heal nature and produce an abundance of food, clothing, shelter, education and health care for the humans that employ them. The corporation will seek to help people to organize themselves to employ the systems it develops. To that end the coproration shall seek to demonstrate and describe the most functional arrangements of living systems, to involve the public in learning the principles and engage people in developing more productive and more integrated systems, to support the people adopting and employing living systems, and to learn from that process to further develop our understanding of these systems.
Programs: Living systems institute is engaged in researching, developing and promoting integrated closed loop production systems. A closed loop production system produces all inputs as a part of the system process, reducing the cost of inputs to zero. An integrated production system uses the byproducts of each process as feed stock for other processes reducing waste to zero. An integrated closed loop production system produces multiple products with reduced waste as a function of its integration and with reduced cost as a function of closing the process loops. This approach holds promise for the production of food and other basic necessities for people of limited means without deterioration of natural systems. It has the potential to heal nature and produce abundance. It can operate as a social safety net that is not a tax burden on the economy.
