There are the Permaculture Design Principles, and then, the personal principles we apply into our lives, some of them extracted from permaculture, some others not.
These are mine:

- Only buy stuff that solves a necessity.
- When shopping, I go for durable, non toxic, plastic free product, if I can afford it.
- Before throwing away, check if it can be repaired or given a second life.
- Consider the cost of transport and end of cycle in everything: trips, commute, errands, groceries, sfsf.
- Critical services must have a reliable manual option by default, and keep a buffer.
- Avoid non-renewable inputs for maintenance tasks.
- Space and time are limited resources.


These have many implications in my daily life, but that'd make this post too long to explain.
Then, what are yours?
