See the steps your company can take towards a more sustainable future through our open resources.
The SME Climate Hub is an initiative of the We Mean Business Coalition, the global nonprofit catalyzing business and policy action to halve global emissions by 2030. The initiative was co-founded and is operated in partnership with the Exponential Roadmap Initiative and the UN Climate Change High Level Champion’s Race to Zero campaign.
The SME Climate Hub aims to mainstream climate action for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), or companies with under 500 employees, and enable them to build resilient businesses for the future. Launched in 2020, the SME Climate Commitment is the official pathway for small and medium-sized businesses to join the global Race to Zero campaign.
SMEs employ 70% of the world’s workforce and represent 90% of business globally. We are here to support these companies in their net zero journey with free, practical resources specifically tailored for small and medium-sized businesses.
Climate action helps small businesses build resilience amid shifting policy regulations, consumer demands, and global expectations. It’s in the best interest of businesses to start their journey — today.
Thank you to our partners!
The SME Climate Hub works with a variety of stakeholders to support SMEs in their net zero journey.
