U.S. SME Voices
Small businesses are the cornerstone of our communities. They are the family businesses that have served our neighborhoods for generations and the nimble startups founded by local entrepreneurs that are building the future’s greatest solutions. Learn more about their climate action stories:
“Legacy Vacation Resort, which has properties across the United States, has experienced the wide-ranging impacts of climate change – from wildfires, hurricanes, and drought. Disruptions to the business have led them to set ambitious goals to halve its emissions by 2030 and transition several of its properties to renewable energy – actions which they say have given them strong business partnerships and bonded their internal staff with a unified goal to protect their communities. ”
Jared Meyers, Legacy Vacation Resorts, Chairman
“Family-owned Dr. Bronner’s approaches business with a planet-and-people-first mentality. Their climate success story comes from addressing the issue from every angle of their supply chain — from improving agricultural practices to rethinking plastic usage and meeting net zero emission goals to build a fair supply chain from the ground up. ”
Darcy Shiber-Knowles, Dr. Bronner’s, Director of Operation Sustainability and Innovation
