We work together on many things but most notably, our customers\u2019 trees are planted through this coalition. That means that we\u2019re planting the right trees, at the right time and in the right places to have the biggest impact possible. These trees are maintained and nurtured for 5 years to make sure they survive the early years and go on to have an impact in reducing CO2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">I\u2019ve found that there are&nbsp;a number of&nbsp;tree planting partners out there,&nbsp;but they are not all equal.

By making our commitment&nbsp;with&nbsp;the SME Climate Hub and joining the community I\u2019m convinced that we\u2019ll be able to make an even greater positive impact on our climate. I hope that we can help other businesses meet their commitments too and offer our support in any way we can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:19px\"><em>How do you think your commitment to the SME Climate Hub might impact your ability to take climate action or increase your impact?\u202f<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">We find it most exciting that&nbsp;the SME Climate&nbsp;Hub&nbsp;has a&nbsp;community element. As a community, we can&nbsp;increase the&nbsp;ekko&nbsp;impact or find new ways through partnerships to create a positive change in a way we haven\u2019t thought of yet. As a&nbsp;start-up&nbsp;we live for meeting like-minded people and figuring out if there is a way to work together to drive change. The SME Climate Hub is a wonderful initiative for this and is already having a positive impact on us.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:28px\">The obstacles holding businesses back \u2013\u202fand the shift in mindset needed to take climate action at scale.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:19px\"><em>What are the most common reasons holding SMEs in your industry back from committing to climate action?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">I think one of the biggest issues is fear. There is a feeling that exists amongst small and medium sized consumer businesses that by making bold statements about doing anything positive around climate change, you\u2019re risking your business being attacked for not being perfect. They\u2019re concerned that despite doing their best, they may still be met with criticism for not meeting certain demands they might not even have been aware of. Therefore, business leaders might think it\u2019s better to keep their head down rather than strive for change.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">I think this is fundamentally wrong. Doing good shouldn\u2019t put&nbsp;businesses or founders&nbsp;at risk. None of us are perfect so that shouldn\u2019t be the bar&nbsp;on which small businesses are assessed. We need to create a safer environment for businesses and individuals to do the best they can and make the changes they can make without the fear of being attacked.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">I\u2019m a real believer that it\u2019s better for everyone to do a bit better and create a tidal wave of improvement rather than&nbsp;a&nbsp;few&nbsp;companies&nbsp;being perfect.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/smeclimatehub.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ekko_Bank_Card-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4160\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smeclimatehub.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ekko_Bank_Card-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/smeclimatehub.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ekko_Bank_Card-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/smeclimatehub.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ekko_Bank_Card-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/smeclimatehub.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ekko_Bank_Card-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/smeclimatehub.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ekko_Bank_Card-960x540.jpeg 960w, https:\/\/smeclimatehub.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ekko_Bank_Card-1140x641.jpeg 1140w, https:\/\/smeclimatehub.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ekko_Bank_Card-570x321.jpeg 570w, https:\/\/smeclimatehub.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ekko_Bank_Card-330x186.jpeg 330w, https:\/\/smeclimatehub.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ekko_Bank_Card-195x110.jpeg 195w, https:\/\/smeclimatehub.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ekko_Bank_Card-150x84.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/smeclimatehub.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ekko_Bank_Card.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:19px\"><em><em>What are&nbsp;the largest obstacles in halving emissions by 2030 for your industry?\u202f<\/em> \u202f<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">Data.
