Biomimicry

There is perhaps no better spokesperson for biomimicry than Janine Benyus, co-founder of the Biomimicry Institute, biologist, and author of Biomimicry: Innovation Inspired by Nature, the book that brought biomimicry into the public eye. This 20-minute film features Janine introducing biomimicry and explaining how mimicking nature can solve some of our most pressing problems.
