Why companies should care about insects
Co-founder Ellen Solvind Montén on why insects matter, and why their decline matters to business.
Insects are among the most important pollinators. According to the IPBES assessment on pollinators (2016), more than 75% of leading global food crop types benefit at least in part from animal pollination. Insects also decompose organic matter, cycle nutrients and form the base of many food webs.
For companies in food, agriculture, textiles and cosmetics, a decline in pollinators is both an impact to manage and a dependency at risk. Want to learn more about your company’s impacts and risks related to insects? Get in touch.
