Jim Laurie has used natural biological processes to turn some of the most toxic and polluted effluent around – both sewage and industrial waste – into clean, clear water. Presented at the Restoring Water Cycles to Reverse Global Warming conference October 16th-18th, 2015 at Tufts University. www.bio4climate.org

How do we learn from them? • Think like a Fish.. or like a Nitrobacter.. or Fungi. • What does the Fish need? • How does the Fish interact with other species? • How can the “Symbiosis Team” work together to improve the process? • Can Humans be a part of the Symbiosis Team?
