A key principle in bioregionalism is reinhabitation, which means building healthier ways of living that are responsible, ethical, that not only maintain but regenerative our local ecosystems, and working with our natural ecosystems, aligning human activity with our bioregions, rather than for human habitation. At present, many people do not think about sustainable farming and the fact that it is often possible to produce most of the necessary raw materials in their own environment. Bioregionalism utilizes them to accomplish three main goals: restore and maintain local natural systems; practice sustainable ways to satisfy basic human needs such as food, water, shelter, and materials; i. support the work of reinhabitation.
