The economic consequences are obvious: if the humming of bees, bumblebees and others stops, our food economy will soon stop buzzing, too. Funded by the EU Commission, our project “LIFE Insect-Responsible Sourcing Regions” brings together different partners for a common goal: the sustainable protection of insects and biodiversity. Initially, seven pilot regions will benefit from our landscape-level approach – they are transferable to other regions throughout Europe.
