As a regional network of the Biomimicry Institute, our mission is to empower the San Diego region, through education and community engagement to learn, discover and emulate Life's design to solve humanity's greatest challenges. Biomimicry is the practice of learning from and emulating Life's genius to create more efficient, elegant, and sustainable designs. It is a problem-solving method, a sustainability ethos, an innovation approach, a change movement, and a new way of viewing and valuing nature.
