Small businesses are platforms for opportunities to help with financial success and independence. It is no surprise that small businesses are called the “Backbone of the Economy”
About 44% of the economic activities in the United States are run by small businesses. 50% of GDP is generated by nearly 27 million small businesses in the country. Small businesses provide most of the local employment and diversity and are platforms for opportunities to help with financial success and independence. It is no surprise that small businesses are called the ‘Backbone of the Economy”.
According to a research by british chambers.org.uk, they found that only one in ten (11%) are measuring their carbon footprint with the larger firms (27%) setting carbon reductions than the microbusinesses (9%) and 30% backing out because of the finances. Ben Block, CEO of GozAround Green, a site that allows businesses to offer rewards to consumers who buy carbon offsets, reacts to the people who say their emissions don’t matter, saying. If every household reduced and/or offset even 10% of their emissions, the impact would be huge.
