There is no Planet B – we’re all in this together and the clock is ticking.  Seeing the business sector increasingly take up the cause of environment stewardship makes my heart happy. Consumers can’t do it all, without changes at the business level that affect how we live more responsibly, and what we consume, influenced by increasing multi-level environmental intelligence.

Let’s use our collective business horse-power to work together, creating sensible, economically sound, and meaningful change.

Businesses have the most significant impact on climate change. Business owners need to speak up because they will inspire and drive their teams to a positive impact and set an example for the people working with and for them.

Leading by example is critical to our mission, so signing the Climate Action Pledge is an important step to show that we care and are committed to taking action. We see the climate crisis and we want to be a part of the community that stands together to fight it.

Our heavy reliance on fossil fuels as an energy source is a monumental problem that will require all sectors, organizations, and individuals to be part of the solution. I know a lot of successful entrepreneurs who are also parents and citizens and care deeply about the welfare of the planet and its people. BizforClimate sends an important signal about the urgency of the climate crisis to the rest of society generally, and policy-makers specifically.
