Groups of businesses at a time need to be supported, and as close to their operational timing needs as possible, if they are to be competitive as individual companies or as together as regions, cities and towns.
The opportunities (and demands) are there for green growth, and so is the finance.

@2030hub.bsky.social always does what we can with individual businesses that ask for help, and will always signpost to whatever support is around wherever they may operate from, but the real answer needs scale.

There is precious little or ineffective practical support for pragmatic sustainability reporting, or net zero for that matter in many regions, cities and towns, especially if you are not in a targeted / high-growth sector.

Many SMEs are struggling to survive in a world of constant uncertainty and huge energy bills. There needs to be significant new business support from national and local governments - which also helps their own net zero targets.
