Biomimicry: Innovation Inspired by Nature
by Janine M. Benyus
Starting in September, the Salon will focus on design. Janine M. Benyus looks to nature to inspire new ways of manufacturing and building things. She looks into the potential profitability of mimicking some of the time-tested, nonpolluting, room-temperature technologies for manufacturing and computing.
Why bother to read it?
It is an easily readable look into the possibility of the creative transformation of the manufacturing process from our old methods of “heat, beat, and treat” to something morre natural and environmentally friendly. See what’s new and doable.
Make sure to take time to watch her TEDcast, too.
