Humanity is increasingly turning to nature's wisdom, or biomimicry, to solve critical challenges like sustainable nutrition. Visionary Janine Benyus illustrates how agriculture is evolving from single-solution approaches to system-savvy, nature-inspired healing.

Benyus previews innovative entries from the Biomimicry Global Design Challenge in food systems. She highlights how the "democratization of invention" fosters collaborative, biomimetic solutions, as teams collectively discover systemic ideas. Cooperation, she notes, is vital for learning from life's genius.

Janine Benyus, the "Godmother of Biomimicry," and her team at Biomimicry 3.8 advocate for humans to become "gift-givers" to the planet. They demonstrate how to design settlements—cities, villages, and homes—that replicate the ecological benefits of natural wildlands.

Benyus envisions cities functioning like forests, managing water, air, nutrients, and biodiversity. Through "Project Positive" initiatives, Biomimicry 3.8 shows this regenerative vision is achievable by asking: "What would Nature do here?"

Janine Benyus, the "Godmother of Biomimicry," advocates for humans to become a "welcome species" by designing settlements that give back to the planet. Through Biomimicry 3.8, she demonstrates how human environments can emulate nature's ecological gifts.

Benyus envisions cities functioning like forests—storing water, purifying air, cycling nutrients, and nurturing biodiversity. Her "Project Positive" initiatives prove this regenerative vision is achievable by asking, "What would Nature do here?" Discover more at biomimicry.net.

Explore the "design intent" of our lives and actions in a new podcast series featuring Janine Benyus and Christiana Figueres. They discuss biomimicry, belonging, and what it means to live in relationship with the natural world. Figueres emphasizes mindful, loving operations for a better world, while Benyus highlights our ability to cultivate a personal connection with nature.

This episode of The AskNature Podcast, a project of The Biomimicry Institute, reveals how systems change begins personally. Hosted by Amanda Sturgeon and Andrew Howley, it will shift your perspective on nature, design, and daily choices. Episode 1 premieres May 27th, urging us to listen to nature's guidance.
