    S3E8 - How Biomimicry Leverages the Best of 3.8 Million Years of R&D

    with 🎙️ Denise E Mall, Managing Director of EnsO Earth 

    💧 EnsO Earth focuses on the intersection of living futures, biomimicry, circularity, and ecological design thinking to go beyond sustainable towards regenerative solutions.


    What we covered:


    🍏 How we can learn from nature and apply the best of what it developed through 3.8 million years of R&D 

    🍏 What Biomimicry is all about, and how down that path you'll find Net Positive Water 

    🍏 How EnsO Earth created the Living Machine and the Living Building concepts 

    🍏 How Janine Benyus ignited the "sacred fire" that steers Denise towards creating a better planet for her great-great children 

    🍏 How becoming an Engineer as a woman is still not as much of a common path as being a teacher, a lawyer, or a nurse 

    🍏 How most of the pollution can be traced back to humans, pouring chemistry into nature 

    🍏 How there is no such thing as "waste" in nature, but only valuable building blocks and natural resources. 

    🍏 How we're kind of stupidly using drinking water for water applications that don't require at all such a level of purity 

    🍏 How it is our collective responsibility to sort the mess we've created 

    🍏 How "Day Zero" may sadly become much more common all around the Planet 

    🍏 How transposing the International Space Station's water management to earth is only a matter of financial equation - and how we value water stress. 

    🍏 Biophilic environmental connection, the power of plants, all being organs of a bigger body, working on reality, not fiction, and much more!

    🔥 ... and of course, we concluded with the 𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙞𝙙 𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚 𝙦𝙪𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 🔥

    Ep46_Living Building Challenge

    Ep46_Living Building Challenge

    What is a Living Building? It is rooted in place yet harvests all it needs (energy, water), is adapted to its climate and site, operates pollution-free, is comprised of integrated systems, and...is BEAUTIFUL. Phil and Chris talk about Living Building Challenge, a certification program that aims to transform the market place, with all it's joys and challenges. Collaborating for the first time, their firms are working on an LBC project, The Ecology School in Saco, Maine. They discuss the 7 petals (and 20 imperatives) put forth by the LBC in detail and chat about how this process has fundamentally changed how they practice as architects.
