Biomimicry: Learning from Nature’s Strategies
Wednesday, July 14 | 4PM PT | 60-minutes
This call is part of Resilience and Possibility in These Times, a series of online offerings to support us all in staying connected to one another, to a vision for the future, and to the spirit of life in these challenging times.
Join Pachamama Alliance Co-founder Lynne Twist in conversation with biomimicry pioneer Janine Benyus to discuss how we can learn from strategies found in nature to create a world that works for all.
The pandemic has demonstrated the vulnerabilities inherent in a society that attempts to operate independently of nature, while it becomes ever more clear that we need to shift to an interdependent mindset in order to bring forth a thriving, just, and sustainable world.
Janine Benyus is a biologist, innovation consultant, author, and speaker, who has introduced millions of people to the concept of biomimicry through two TED talks and six books, including Biomimicry: Innovation Inspired by Nature. She is a Co-founder of the Biomimicry Institute, a non-profit dedicated to making biology a natural part of the design process. Among various other roles, Janine serves on the U.S. Green Building Council Board of Directors, the advisory board for the Ray C. Anderson Foundation, and the Board of Directors for Project Drawdown.
