Biomimicry Walk

Inspiration from nature to solve the challenges of our time

What Is Biomimicry?

The miracle of nature is that whenever there has been a challenge, there is an organism that has found a way to conquer it. Want to live a life of zero waste? Nature has done it! What to live in the desert with no water? Nature has done it? Want to live a more meaningful and prosperous life? Nature has done it!

There are just over 8.7 million described plants and animals on Earth which are essentially individual science experiments, perpetually testing out new ways of doing things in order to find a better way. Since we all live under the same laws of nature and under the same conditions of planet Earth, it makes sense that we learn from the inner workings of the natural world to overcome the challenges of modern life.

Introduction

The Biomimicry Walk is based upon the content of Jonathan Leeming’s award winning book, One World. The work consists of an exploration of the environment to discover how nature can help us overcome the challenges of out time.

The Biomimicry Walk is an easy walk for all abilities. During the walk we will examine some features of the natural world and discuss the technology that comes from that asset and how can we learn from it.

This event is highly interactive and suitable for school groups, special interest groups and as a leadership focused event.
