Some critics have said that permaculture is all very well and good for
tropical or desert conditions, but isn't suitable for a cool temperate
country such as the UK. Indeed, many of the major permaculture texts
published up until now have been Australian in origin and thus contained
large sections that have been at best irrelevant to us Brits. At worse they
have led to disillusionment when advice intended for climates far more hot
or humid than ours has been slavishly followed and resulted in failure.

How interesting -- I found some of the Mollison books a bit unhelpful because
they assume Tasmanian conditions, which I would have thought were similar to
those found in the British Isles -- cool and wet!
