Janine Benyus

From the Spring 2025 Bioneers Conference – In this insight keynote presentation, biomimicry icon Janine Benyus helps us imagine a city that functions like a forest – storing the same amount of water, cleaning and cooling as well as the same amount of air, cycling of nutrients and the nurturing of biodiversity. She also shares inspiring news about Biomimicry 3.8’s Project Positive initiatives that reveal that this regenerative vision is indeed achievable and within our reach, if we are able to quiet our human cleverness sufficiently to be able to ask: What would Nature do here?

We encourage you to learn more about her work at Biomimicry 3.8 - it begins by watching her video here - https://greenmoney.com/janine-benyus-on-becoming-a-welcome-species-biomimicry-and-the-art-of-generous-design
