Things you can do

before starting a business

At personal level

Connect with other eco-

conscious people

Surround yourself with a network of
individuals who share your passion for
sustainability. Participate in green
initiatives , join environmental
advocacy groups, and connect with
mentors who have experience in
sustainable and green
entrepreneurship. This network can
provide valuable advice, collaboration
opportunities, and emotional support as
you navigate the challenges of starting

and growing a green business.

Conduct a personal

environmental audit

Carry out an environmental audit of your
personal life to understand your own
environmental footprint. Assess your energy
consumption, waste production, transport
habits and purchasing decisions. By making
personal changes to reduce your
environmental impact, you can not only lead
by example, but also gain practical insight
into the challenges and opportunities of
sustainable living. What this experience will

do is make you a more credible and authentic
green entrepreneur.
