and: “Janine Benyus, author of a wonderful book called Biomimicry, pointed out that humans assigned one group of people called biologists to study how other species make a living, while a totally separate group of people called economists were to figure out how humans make a living.

Where is the leadership? Distributed leadership. Everything shared and recycled. What a great economic model!” The Big Picture (1999)
