To avoid the worst effects of climate change, companies need to act now! 🌡️ Businesses play a critical role in protecting our planet. Our new guide, ‘Reduce Your Business Impact on Nature’, outlines essential steps to reduce your environmental footprint - within your supply chain and beyond. By tackling the negative impact your business practices could have on land, like farming and cutting down trees, you can help protect environments. Investing in natural ways to reduce those emissions, going further than traditional offsets like planting trees or protecting forests, also promotes more sustainable lifestyles. Key highlights: 🟢Reduce emissions from agriculture, forestry, and other land uses within supply chains. 🟢Eliminate deforestation and commit to sustainable products and materials. 🟢Invest in nature-based solutions like reforestation and wetland restoration. 🟢Report transparently on emissions and efforts to solve nature-focused problems, like reducing pollution. ✅ Take the next step in your sustainability journey and visit https://lnkd.in/eEB4M9Hs to get started.

When it comes to addressing climate change it can be hard to get off the starting blocks.

🌍 Small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) play an integral role in our economies and communities, and in global efforts to tackle climate change. While the individual impact a small company has on #climatechange may feel small itself, with some 358 million SMEs globally, there is power in numbers. But these businesses don’t have to go it alone. To help them navigate their decarbonization journey and move from climate ambition to action, the SME Climate Hub, an initiative of the We Mean Business Coalition, has just released its new Action Space. With this exciting new launch, made possible thanks to collaboration from leading businesses and partners including Environmental Defense Fund and WBCSD – World Business Council for Sustainable Development, the SME Climate Hub continues to grow its comprehensive open platform for small business climate action. The Action Space outlines how #SMEs across sectors and regions can move towards net zero. It’s broken down into simple steps, with some steps requiring minimal or no investment costs.    Highlights include: ✅ Downloadable Action Guides that identify steps for emissions reduction across both owned operations - such as buildings, IT services, travel and energy - and supply chains  ✅ Educational courses to maximize climate action impact across a small business, from strategy to sustainable product design  ✅ Tools for emissions measurement, reporting and employee engagement 🔗 Together, we are making climate action easier than ever for SMEs.  Access the free resources and learn from the success of other SMEs reducing emissions to build a business that’s set for the future, here: https://lnkd.in/ecWkV2Gy #SMEActionSpace
