🌍 Promoting ESG Reporting for SMEs: Environmental Pillar Indicators 🌍   At MESS4GE, we’re excited to share a key milestone from our EU-funded project aimed at promoting ESG reporting among SMEs! We’ve developed an easy-to-use ESG reporting template that helps SMEs focus on ESG reporting and to the key environmental indicators—tailored to their size and resources.   📊 The environmental indicators are divided into two categories: Core Indicators: Essential for all SMEs, regardless of size. Additional Indicators: Relevant but might be less critical for very small enterprises.   The two images below illustrate the Core Environmental Disclosures we recommend for all SMEs. These indicators are practical and easy to track.   🔧 How to Track These Indicators: To help SMEs track these indicators, we suggest simple methodologies using existing tools like electricity and water bills for energy and water consumption. For waste and recycling, collaboration with recycling companies can provide the necessary data. Even if you lack formal partnerships, describing your recycling practices is a good starting point.   👉 This process will help SMEs build robust Environmental Reports that include both qualitative and quantitative data, empowering them to play a significant role in sustainability.   📈 Stay tuned for more updates on the social and governance pillars as part of our ongoing ESG reporting framework.   #ESG #Sustainability #SMEs #EnvironmentalIndicators #MESS4GE #SustainableBusiness #GreenTransition   University of Galway | University of Nicosia | SGS | ECOLE Enti COnfindustriali Lombardi per l’Education | IDEC S.A. | Σύνδεσμος Α.Ε. & Επιχειρηματικότητας | Léargas
