- See where you stand: Measure your emissions e.g. by using the Business Carbon Calculator on the SME Climate Hub or an external tool of comparable accuracy.
- Publicly commit: Announce publicly your targets and SME Climate Commitment.
- Take action: Start taking concrete action to reduce emissions from the identified key areas.You can learn key actions for reducing emissions through our Action Space.
- Share your annual progress: Upload a climate report or create one using the SME Reporting Tool, and continue to update your progress annually.
