APRENDIENDO DE LA NATURALEZA

Everything we have explored and learned during the last ten years is interconnected with Biodiversity. The forest, the food chain, the ocean, endangered species and human activity such as biomimetics are essential pieces of the planet’s balance and biodiversity.

BIODIVERSITY
[ It is all connected ]

Biodiversity is all the different types of life you will find in one area, from bacteria, fungi, plants, animals, habitats and genetic differences acting together to create ecosystems that support life and balance on Earth.

“No one will protect what they don’t care about, and no one will care about what they have never experienced.”

David Attenborough,
English broadcaster and natural historian.
