Learn about Biomimicry
Find out what biomimicry is and what it does, at the BotSoc KZN AGM.
CLAIRE Janisch, the founder and director of BiomimicrySA, will speak on Biomimicry – Innovation Inspired by Nature – at the BotSoc KZN Coastal Branch AGM on Sunday, 20 July, at the Durban Botanic Gardens Visitors Centre at 3pm.
Every so often an idea comes around that is a game changer. After we hear it and understand it, we never see the world quite the same ever again. Biomimicry is such an idea. It shows that a sustainable world already exists. Innovative solutions to our sustainability and other design challenges already exist within nature and have been tested over eons to be truly effective. Nature’s ecosystems offer a vision of a world that works for life rather than against it. Biomimicry offers a practical approach to get there.
Claire ‘s presentation will introduce the field of biomimicry, including inspiring case studies to illustrate, with a focus on the world of plants and what we are learning from them.
