New initiative aims to help SMEs halve emissions before 2030

ECO BUSINESS: The SME Climate Hub — co-hosted by the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), the Exponential Roadmap Initiative, the We Mean Business coalition and the United Nations Race to Zero campaign — was launched at the 2020-edition of New York Climate Week.

The SME Climate Hub will encourage small and medium-sized companies to commit to halving greenhouse gas emissions before 2030, reaching net-zero emissions before 2050. SMEs making this commitment – which will be globally recognized by the United Nations Race to Zero campaign – will be able to take advantage of accessible tools and resources to help them reduce emissions and build business resilience.
