ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT TRACKING
Track your building’s impact with science-based biodiversity data
Take your ESG reporting to the next level. Work with research scientists to analyze samples from your honey bee hive and produce trackable biodiversity data.
How does it work?
You can use your hive data to make a difference on a global scale.
Samples are taken from your hive
3 times per year, your beekeeper will take samples of honey, pollen, and bees from your hive.
Samples are analyzed
Samples are analyzed by Apilab researchers to determine the diversity of flowers in the area, pollen quality, and indicators that the bees are healthy.
Track your impact
Receive 3 environmental reports per year. Include this science-based data in your ESG report and track your environmental impact year over year.
Get recommendations
Based on the results, you’ll receive recommendations to improve the quality of biodiversity around your property.
Support pollinators globally
The data from your hive is confidentially shared with a global network of scientists to support research on pollinator health and protection.
Be at the forefront of positive environmental change in your city
