We’re all responsible for the world we live in and we can all contribute to re-designing it to eliminate oil dependency and create a sustainable future. This was the message delegates heard from Dayna Baumeister at the Jan. 21 World Without Oil symposium, a new addition to the Toronto Interior Design Show.
For the bulk of Earth’s history, life has existed without a dependency on oil, and it is possible and critical that we rethink and redesign and recreate our current production system to achieve that state again, said Baumeister, co-founder of the Biomimicry Guild.
She held up biomimicry — defined in its simplest terms as the “conscious emulation of nature’s genius” — as a vital tool in achieving this objective.
