الوصف: Insects are a ubiquitous yet largely overlooked presence in countless modes of organizing and organizational settings. In fact, they are the most abundant form of animal life on the planet. Therefore, the ways in which organizations attend (or not) to our invertebrate companions holds significant ecological and social implications. This chapter draws attention to some of these dimensions in relation to the important ecological and economic activity of insect pollination. With the interrelated organizational phenomena of honeybee bias and bee-washing as the chapter’s empirical foci, the authors identify how dominant organizationally-facilitated and -perpetuated modes of care exhibited towards European honeybees have given rise to socially and ecologically unsound circumstances. The chapter suggests these consequences arise, in part, from the vertebrate-centric approach these organizational care-oriented initiatives are founded on, characterized by an individualistic and universal approach. Like the pollination process, the chapter proposes acts of more-than-vertebrate care can only take place through intimate moments of relationality, and are always entangled with and influenced by other (sometimes invisible, unknowable) situated forces. Through this discussion, the chapter encourages further consideration of what a more-than-vertebrate ethics of care framework might entail for various organizational settings, particularly insect-pollinated systems of commercial importance.
