A guide to support business advisors discuss climate resilience with SMEs
Business advisors have an important role to play in raising awareness of the need for businesses to increase their resilience to climate change.
This guide provides prompt questions to help business advisors discuss resilience to climate change with businesses.
Scottish businesses are already being disrupted by extreme weather brought about by climate change. Extreme weather is predicted to increase in frequency and intensity over the coming decades.
While businesses may not think they have time to work on climate resilience, there are simple and pragmatic actions that can be taken to increase resilience as part of existing business activities and address current priorities.
The guide is designed as a discussion tool, rather than to provide definitive advice, as every business will be facing different opportunities and challenges. We have provided links to further information alongside each question.
