BIOMIMICRY
For any human engineering or design problem we face today, the chances are good that over the last billion or so years nature has devised and optimized at least one elegant, holistic, sustainable solution. Biomimicry actively seeks out those best-in-class designs and "manufacturing" methods and applies them to today's pressing needs. Biomimicry can improve businesses by helping them find nature’s best ideas and then imitate these designs and processes to solve problems.
