My Power Station

Keynote Speaker

Permaculture Course in 2010

In the Winter of 2010, June 2010, I did a permaculture course with Robina McCurdy at Jakkalskloof farm near Swellendam.

From my notes: We learnt about Carrying Capacity, Legal Structures, Entry and Exit, Housing Strategy, Financial Constraints, Social Processes, Conflict Resolution, Watched DVDs, went on walks, created a model of the terrain using sand, string for roads and rivers, talked around the camp fire one night, invited the neighbouring farmers round for supper one night. I fed the chickens every day and collected the eggs. Free range, organic, grain fed. Fabulous. Did two 5.30am (rooster woke me up - I had to find out why) meditations with stars so close I could touch them! Saw satellites, shooting stars, aircraft taking off at 6am. Met amazing people. Did Tai Chi on other days. Learnt about "zones" and "seasonal calendars".

All this is important as part of a Community Power Station. If you'd like me to talk about why, please let me know.

Dear all

Energy – Keynotes by David Lipschitz

• Keynotes
• Conference speaking
• Presentations: choose a subject or select from a list
• Chairing debates and panel discussions
• Advisory panels
• Or invite me to your conference because of the questions I ask. I get the debate going!

I am a keynote speaker at conferences, amongst quite a few other energy related work I do.

I take the technical detail from the energy world to non-technical people to show them how they can reduce their cost of living for themselves and the environment and how they can make their own electricity so that load shedding doesn’t affect them, and so that they can protect their environment, their income and prepare for retirement.

To keep busy when I’m not talking about or researching energy, I develop financial, manufacturing, incentive and loyalty software using Delphi and Oracle.

Looking forward to your comments and to working with you.

Regards
David
