BT is marking Earth Day through a partnership with the UK Business Climate Hub, which aims to help UK SMBs halve CO2e emissions by 2030 and achieve net zero emissions by 2050.
Reaching this milestone could cut 280m tonnes of CO2e in the next six years, research estimates.
Nine in ten (90%) of SMEs would like to address climate change at their business but find it challenging to get started and identify the right tools to mitigate their environmental impact.
BT’s will support more than one million SMB customers with the UK Business Climate Hub’s free resources to help businesses reduce their carbon footprint.
Chris Sims, MD, SMB at BT, said: “From speaking to our small business customers we know that with limited resources, many of them struggle to find the time, the funding, or the guidance to help them prioritise sustainability.
“With the UK Business Climate Hub we are beginning our journey to reach more businesses with free tools and practical support to help them set the foundations for a greener future, and ultimately, reach Net Zero.”
