BioInspired! So What? Now What!

B3D Webinars:

The YouTube recording of Taryn Mead’s B3D Webinar on Biomimicry and Planetary Boundaries is posted at https://plus.google.com/u/0/b/112411992907248716919/112411992907248716919/posts/Ajsic9ZX74n (I hope to have the recording indexed and summarized shortly).  In addition to a discussion between Margo Farnsworth and Taryn on the Google+ page,   Ingrid de Pauw posted a comment at http://bioinspired.sinet.ca/content/20140213-b3d-webinars-planetary-boundaries#comment-1317.  I will cross-reference the Google+ and the BID Community discussions.
