NATURE * LOCAL * CIRCULAR

Besides boosting happiness, positive emotion, kindness, exposure to nature may also have physical and mental health benefits. Nature experiences lead to reduced stress and behavioral changes that improve mood and general well- being.

​

Ekobie is also convinced that nature can teach us about health care, running economies on limited resources, providing homes that self cool and heat: Nature does all these things far better, far more effectively and far more beautifully than humans do.

By using insights from nature we can redesign our societies to be more like nature, to be abundant, beautiful and free from pollutants.

​

Nature recycles waste efficiently, uses renewable power from the sun, is resilient to sudden changes, adaptable over time to new conditions, and self regulates through feedback. A future economy and society, a circular economy, could have the same characteristics.
