Next Nature

Virtual worlds, printed food, living cities and wild robots; we're so surrounded by technology that it's becoming our next nature. It may sound abstract, but it's closer than you think; cars will drive themselves and heart valves are 3D printed. How not to lose sight of the human factor? Next Nature is the international network for anyone interested to join the debate on our future – in which nature and technology are fusing. In a landscape of traditional nature organizations, we are the only group that approaches the concept of nature in a new manner. Preserving nature is of great importance, but we must also dare to look ahead. Did you ever consider eating cultured meat? Are robots threatening our jobs? Why doesn't a tree in the jungle represent ecological value?
