Life under water: The use of pesticides and artificial fertilizer can have negative impacts on the water quality, for example, due to run-off or spray-drift. As these are not used in organic agriculture, life under water is protected.
Life on land: By only selling organic products, no pesticides are added to the environment, protecting biodiversity, including insects.
