Prof.Mr.M.Rajesh, Department of Zoology, The American College, President, Tamilnadu Science forum, Madurai was the resource person for this guest lecture. The Resource person focused on green building techniques that included biomimicry (how nature can be imitated in design) and how mimicry can help architects create a more efficient, sustainable and beautiful by learning from nature’s wisdom. In this presentation, he spoke about using nature in design-how the different parts of trees can be taken as an inspiration to create buildings. Objectives of conducting this lecture is to create products, processes, and systems new ways of living that solve our greatest design challenges sustainably and in solidarity with all life on earth. We can use biomimicry to not only learn from nature’s wisdom, but also heal ourselves and this planet in the process. . Benefit of conducting this lecture on biomimicry is to offer an empathetic, interconnected understanding of how life works and ultimately where we fit in. During the feedback session, the participants interacted with the resource person and clarified their queries regarding this biomimicry. Nearly 45 students and 10 faculty members were participated in this guest lecture. Ms.S.Mareeswari, Third Year, Department of EEE delivered the Vote of Thanks.
