Biomimicry seeks to emulate the time-tested adaptive strategies of many species of plants, animals and microorganisms to transform how we live on this planet. Janine Benyus of the Biomimicry Guild celebrates the newest ancient ideas bubbling up in the natural sciences, illuminating how evolution's wisdom can help us design benign, life-enhancing technologies while inspiring us to protect Earth's biodiversity. Introduction by Kenny Ausubel, Bioneers CEO and Co-Founder. This speech was presented at the 2005 Bioneers National Conference.
