Watson discusses how we can respond to climate change by utilizing millennia-old knowledge about how we can live in symbiosis with nature. What are the cultural preconditions required to implement a living bridge and other indigenous technologies? How can western society better create technology through the elements that already exist in our surrounding environment?
