Things you can do

while establishing your business

At business level

Implement a circular

economy model

Design your business processes around a
circular economy model where materials
and products are reused, refurbished, or
recycled rather than discarded.

This approach reduces waste and
maximizes resource use, making your
business more sustainable and resilient
in the long term.

Incorporate green

certifications and

standards

Strive to meet recognized environmental
certifications and standards, such as B Corp,
LEED, or Fair Trade.

These certifications can guide you in
implementing sustainable practices and serve
as a mark of credibility for consumers who
value environmental and social responsibility.

Additionally, they provide a framework to
measure and improve your sustainability

efforts over time.
