Survey: Majority of Small and Medium-Size Businesses Unhappy with Their Sustainability Progress
The majority of small and medium-size businesses (52 percent) said they’re not satisfied with current levels of sustainability, and even more (65 percent) reported that they’re committed to increasing eco-friendly activities.
Most small and medium-size businesses want better sustainability programs but are hindered by costs and a perception that investments in green initiatives don’t matter to customers.
That’s one of the key findings of a recent Cox Enterprises survey on sustainability, which received responses from more than 2,000 decision markers of businesses with fewer than 1,000 employees.
