Small businesses need to accelerate their sustainability goals – but many aren’t doing enough to go green.
That’s the suggestion from World Kinect Energy Services, which commissioned YouGov to survey 1,021 UK SME decision-makers about their progress towards net zero.
It found 40% do not have an immediate plan in place to become more sustainable – shockingly, nearly a third said they do not intend to put a sustainability strategy in place at all.
The study suggests only 34% have actually achieved any goals.
News is not much better on the micro-business or medium-sized business front – 42% and 55% respectively have not set goals or a strategy.
