Pollinator breakfast
We would have to do without these foods if there were no insects

In countries like China, it's already happening: people are running around with sticks and brushes to pollinate fruit trees because there aren't enough insects left alive. Could this soon also "blossom" for us in the literal sense?

We want to show you what is left on plates when we take away all the products that come from pollination at a little breakfast. Come along and grab some tasty nibbles. Experience how plants, animals, agriculture and climate are related and what we can do together to preserve the diversity in the air and thus on our plates.

Curious now? Then stay and watch the film "Flower Power" and the "Biodiversity Show".
