NATURE HAS a lot she can teach about efficiency. A few hundred million years of evolution have sculpted certain plants, like the cactus or lichen, to make the most with the barest minimum of resources. In an economy where every penny matters, mimicking Earth’s best survivors and paring down your company’s own resource consumption can not only lessen your overall environmental impact, but have similar results of spurring growth in an otherwise harsh climate.NATURE HAS a lot she can teach about efficiency.
