Learning
Turning mixed textile waste that was destined for landfill or incineration into something valuable and usable by Earth’s “helpers”.
"There are millions of species of bacteria, archaea, and algae, the most ancient and widespread engines of material flows and life support for the planet. When they don’t recognize what we humans make, it becomes pollution. Instead, we can learn from them and support them and in turn, they will continue to support us. It’s time to help the helpers.
"This initiative converts unwanted materials into biomaterials recognizable to nature. The Biomimicry Institute set out to apply nature’s principles to a very unnatural set of circumstances."
