SECRET Of ENGINEERS-See How Engineers Copy Designs From Nature -Biomimicry|BIOLOGY BYTES
BIOLOGYBYTES-If you search engineer on google complex maths pops up but how do you cool a building without air conditioning? Using an approach called biomimicry, see how engineer Mick Pearce harnessed the ingenuity of termites to design a natural cooling system for the largest commercial building in Zimbabwe. Biomimicry is an approach to innovation that seeks sustainable solutions to human challenges by emulating nature’s time-tested patterns and strategies. The goal is to create products, processes, and policies—new ways of living—that are well-adapted to life on earth over the long haul.The core idea is that nature has already solved many of the problems we are grappling with. Animals, plants, and microbes are the consummate engineers. After billions of years of research and development, failures are fossils, and what surrounds us is the secret to survival.
