Biodiversity: A guide for Swedish companies

Did you know that your company is more dependent on nature than you might think? Behind every product, every service and every business decision, nature's systems work silently – with raw materials, water, energy, pollination and more. That's why we have produced a guide for those who want to understand the business benefit of biodiversity – and for those who want to do something about it. The book was produced in collaboration with researchers from the Gothenburg Global Biodiversity Centre, the University of Gothenburg and Vildriket. It contains both concrete tools and inspiring examples from Swedish companies that are already on their way.

The SDGs wedding cake

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are the 17 goals that are part of the UN's Agenda 2030. Azote's created the "SDG wedding cake" illustration for the Stockholm Resilience Centre, which shows how economies and societies should be seen as embedded parts of the biosphere. This vision departs from today's fragmented sectoral view where social, economic and ecological development are seen as separate parts.
