Over the past several decades we have begun decoding and deciphering the inner workings of nature. We are discovering in its teachings the principles of ecological design upon which we will be able to change the way we live. With nature’s operating instructions, we can evolve a technological and social framework that can heal the earth and support all beings, including humans, in a symbiotic harmony. By learning from the workings of the natural world—the ecological knowledge that transcends human intelligence—we can cultivate a new generation of stewards of the earth.
