Nature-Based Systems Thinking is:
Ecosystem Services
All the products, benefits, and services that Nature provides for free. Ecosystem Services are a way to measure and account for the true value of Nature.
Biomimicry
Using the patterns and designs found in Nature to solve human problems and create new innovations. Biomimicry is a design approach that sees Nature as the ultimate engineer.
Green Infrastructure
Urban infrastructure that mimics the resilience of natural ecosystems and their functions.
With living buildings and architecture,
we can re-integrate our cities with Nature.
