When we look at what is truly sustainable, the only real model that has worked over long periods of time is nature.
Have you ever observed nature closely? What do you notice? What relations do you see? What patterns? What is revealed when you start to look at its incredibility?
We create technology to make our lives easier. But without intending to, we have created massive sustainability problems for our future generations. The solutions to these problems are all around us in the form of nature.
So, come up with a solution inspired from nature. Put your brain to work. Combine your observation and innovation to make something that can impact an industry.
