"SMBs are the backbone of the global economy, making up approximately 90% of businesses worldwide and are responsible for 60-70% of global industrial emissions."
"By making smarter, more energy-efficient decisions today, businesses of all sizes can help reduce e-waste, lessen their environmental impact and help build a more environmentally responsible future."
"Innovations are now helping level the playing field, allowing SMBs to innovate sustainably despite limited resources and high upfront costs."
"AI-enabled laptops feature intelligent power optimization algorithms that dynamically adjust energy consumption based on workload, helping systems run more efficiently."
As Earth Day approaches, small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) should reconsider their approaches to ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) practices, given their substantial share in global emissions. With projections indicating a rise in e-waste, SMBs hold a crucial role in driving energy efficiency through mindful material choices and technology, particularly AI. For instance, AI-powered tools can optimize energy use and streamline operations. Despite facing resource challenges, innovations provide SMBs the necessary support to adopt more sustainable practices, potentially leading to a more responsible digital future for the environment.
