Climate change pose significant challenges to all industries and small businesses will not be the exception to this. The cost-benefit of a proactive approach is evident and tangible, however, it is difficult for a small business to know where to begin and even land concepts such as “greener”, “more efficient”, “adapting” or “become more climate resilient” into their business structure.
