Janine Benyus — Biomimicry as a Cooperative Inquiry

Our species is finally turning toward other species for their embodied wisdom, borrowing these insights to solve challenges such as delivering nutrition in a way that nourishes both planet and people.

She gives us a sneak preview of the amazing entries in the Biomimicry Global Design Challenge in food systems.

Cooperation, naturally enough, is the best way to learn from life's genius! Full video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Li7ifi83LV0
