Thrive in '25: Why SMEs Can’t Afford to Ignore Carbon Audits

With sustainability climbing on the agenda, small business owners will be wondering how to juggle tighter budgets while tackling their environmental impact. For some—like public sector suppliers or those businesses in heavily regulated industries—carbon audits are no longer optional. But even if you’re not yet mandated to act, getting ahead now can save money and future-proof your business.UK SMEs are responsible for an estimated 15 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually.
