EcoSphere - A Nature-Inspired Approach to Smart Agriculture in Desert Regions
This paper highlights biomimicry’s potential to address water and food scarcity in arid regions. By tackling challenges like limited arable land, unsustainable water resources, and high-energy agricultural practices, it proposes an engineered greenhouse using the ‘Biomimicry Design Spiral.’ The paper aims to promote sustainable food production and enhance community resilience in water-stressed and foodinsecure areas.
