biomim7.jpgFinal Words

If we are willing to make progress, we cannot rely on the small scale improvements, we need to re-think challenges from the First principle and using biomimicry to achieve them.

The more our world function like the natural world, the more likely we are to endure on this home that is ours, but not ours alone.
