Description

How is biomimicry related to what we eat, or the ways that we connect to a place? Listen in to learn from Sara El Sayed, Co-Director of The Biomimicry Center and Assistant Research Professor at the Swette Center for Sustainable Food Systems at Arizona State University. We will explore and explain Life's Principles: 26 deep patterns that govern all of life on Earth, and an incredible tool to measure how life-friendly a design is. Sara beautifully weaves this methodology with Traditional Ecological Knowledge as it relates to our food system. Together, these practices and perspectives can help us build a healthy future for not only humans, but the ecosystems in which we live and the organisms that share our home with us.

We share Earth with millions of other species, many of whom have been around much longer than us. Biomimicry is the promising practice of learning from nature’s forms, processes, and systems to create life-friendly designs that benefit both people and the planet. Lily Urmann – a biomimic, educator, and nature communicator – will explore this exciting field and showcase how biomimicry is applied and practiced around the world; from architecture and engineering to material science, manufacturing, business, design and everything in-between. Join Lily as she dives into the brilliant and beautiful world of how nature works and interviews biomimics across cutting-edge disciplines. Together, let’s discover what we can learn from nature!
