BIOMIMICRY:Mimicking Nature’s Problem Solvers

Nature has some really cool solutions to everyday challenges and many challenges are similar to ones humans face. Biomimicry is the practice of learning from nature and using similar strategies to solve issues. For example, a Swiss engineer invented the Velcro hook and loop fastener after studying the burs stuck in his dog’s fur. The barbs on burdock seeds provided the inspiration! Join us to explore some examples of biomimicry and create nature-inspired solutions to some water-based problems. For families and all ages.
