We get used to things seeming like they're stable, and then when things get disrupted, we freak out exactly. We do not teach resilience. It's not built in to the framing. I many see it in a couple of places, like, diversify your portfolio. But instead we build bigger walls. Ain't so i remember there was a lot of conversations in the united states after nine 11 about, you know, prevention of future terroristacks. And rather than create resilience in the water supply, the idea was to build a bigger fence around this source of water.
Our guest in this podcast episode is Dr. Dayna Baumeister, a researcher, consultant, and educator in the field of biomimicry. She is the co-founder of Biomimicry 3.8., a project that trains change-makers in sustainable design principles inspired by nature’s forms, processes, and ecosystems.
Dayna and her business partner Janine Benyus have developed the biomimicry movement as a response to the world’s sustainability problems.
In this episode we talk about how we can learn from nature to be more resilient and self-sustainable, raise better adapted kids, and adopt the everyday practices to improve our chances of overcoming the climate and economic challenges ahead.
