On December 5, the San Diego Zoo was featured on a General Electric Innovation Webcast. The Webcast was sponsored by Patia McGrath, General Electric (GE) global director of innovation, and was broadcast around the globe to all GE businesses and each Global Research Center hub.
”We are at a critical point in time where the world needs new product designs, processes, and ideas for innovation that are sustainable “green” solutions. Nature has been coming up with sustainable solutions for billions of years and there is much we can learn from nature. The San Diego Zoo is a place where nature’s solutions reside. The San Diego Zoo is working to save endangered species. Nature has the answers needed to save the habitat needed to save the species.”
