Addressing climate change is more important than ever before. Businesses, no matter how big or small, are expected to take a proactive approach to meeting national and global emissions targets across the supply chain.
It's not just about doing the right thing for the environment in which we live and work. It's also about making sure your business stays competitive in the carbon-neutral, and ultimately net-zero, marketplace of the future.
With growing expectation from clients and consumers, as well as increasing pressure from local and international climate legislation, businesses of all sizes need to know their carbon footprint, demonstrate emission reduction and report on it.
In Australia, our government has set a target of 43% reduction in emissions by 2030 and businesses are expected to play a critical role in meeting that goal.
This means procurement requirements are evolving across the supply chain, and business owners and operators need to adapt to the new reality in order to survive and thrive.
Whether you are a project owner being required to report emissions, or a small supplier accountable to your client's emissions reporting - now is the time to get started.
You don't need to be a climate expert: take a look at how other small to medium businesses are getting it done
It's a challenge, particularly for small to medium businesses.
