“The Adaptive Cycle Model of Ecosystems” explains how natural systems evolve through continuous phases of growth, stability, disturbance, and regeneration. This dynamic view of ecosystems perfectly complements Module 2, helping students understand that ecological systems are never static — they adapt and transform. By linking these natural cycles to permaculture design, the video reinforces the module’s focus on resilience, interconnection, and learning to work with nature’s processes rather than against them.
