Episode 3 - Aviva’s Abigail Herron on Why Investors Care About Bees

Abigail Herron, Global Head of Responsible Investment at Aviva
Investors, which manages close to USD 0.5 trillion worth of
assets, are today's guest. We discuss why investors are
increasingly paying attention to the financial risks connected to
factory farming, oceanic plastic, anti-microbial resistance and
the global decline of pollinators. There are significant risks to
the way we produce our food that are lurking in the blind spots
of the world’s capital markets. Left unchecked, these risks could
have potential financial impacts running into trillions of
dollars. Abigail tells us how Aviva is working with the financial
community to help us towards a more sustainable, well-fed,
future.
