Majority of UK firms have no plans for a „low carbon” economy, study reveals


Almost 90 percent of UK businesses have no plans in place for a “low carbon” economy, recent research by Aston University has been able to reveal.

The research found that more than a third (38%) of business leaders say “they do not see climate change and the transition to a low carbon economy as a concern” while another 41% see it as just a “minor concern”.

Despite 66% of bosses believing their firm has a responsibility to do something about climate change and support the transition to a low carbon economy, only 7% have adapted their corporate strategy and future plans to accommodate the issue, the report claims.

It went on to say a further 16% “have plans to make significant changes” while 32% say their business “is not adapting its plans at all”.
