Ecological Engineers apply knowledge gained from ecological sciences
and experiences in various fields of engineering. Ecological
Engineering practices are not new. Especially in the eastern part of
the world priciples such as polyculture and recycling strategies have a
long tradition. Since the term 'Ecological Engineering' has been
introduced by H.T. Odum in the 60ies however, the field has developed
significantly.
Today, we find thousands of constructed wetlands for wastewater
purification all over the world. Flood plains are restored to retend
storm water. Greenhouses use waste heat and are nurtured with
aquaculture outflows. And bridges start to accomodate wildlife.
