Our objective is to get SMEs to go for carbon neutrality. SMEs are the backbone of most our economies with a significant carbon footprint. Engaging and incentivizing them to go for carbon neutrality would have a huge positive impact. Our idea has 2 main elements: 1. to incentivize them: Rankings for SMEs, aka Green "Forbes" - Start a publication like Forbes - Green Forbes or similar in one of the European countries - Sweden - Ranking of SMEs according to carbon neutrality 2. to enable them: One-stop-shop for SMEs to get to carbon neutrality - App for SMEs to be able to calculate their footprint (customized per sector) - Including Best practices and success stories for SMEs which achieved carbon neutrality (best practices on how to adapt your business model) - Including How-to-module for SMEs to get trained on achieving carbon neutrality - Including Information on circular economy - Including Information on how to get audited on carbon footprint if that is wanted (link to partner organizations) - Including Education and best practices on business model adaptation for carbon neutrality

To clarify: SME are small and middlesized enterprises, typically 1-250 employees and max 50 Mio of turnover. In Europe, SME account for 99% of all enterprises and they are considered the backbone of any local economy.

Also showing a good business plan with circular economy model is also a right channel to motivate the investors they can make same profit if not more when integrating environmental and social benefits to the Society through incentives, constraintful and restrictive measures !

CO2 SCHOOL CERTIFICATION AND APP Certification of CO2 footprint for schools and an app that helps schools (esp. students and teachers) to reduce their footprint throughout the year TARGET GROUP AND OBJECTIVE The target group of our idea are teachers and students in schools. We want to create awareness for the CO2 footprint among students and teachers and have them experience how their actions influence the footprint and how to improve it. APP The app would be similar as the “We don’t have time” app in that it has a section where initiatives and ideas can be put forward and voted for. the best ideas can then be implemented at a bigger level. Also we would link the footprint calculator to enable schools to constantly check their footprint. KEY FACTS Further we would include a key facts section about climate change - so that teachers have a source to refer to. SOCIAL MEDIA We believe it would be important to have an interactive social media feed also that relates to climate action. A teacher's section could enable teachers to share best practices on how to integrate climate into the existing curriculum. MOVIE PRODUCTION Finally, we would incentivise schools and students to make a yearly documentary on their actions. This would be supported by a curriculum for teachers. At the year end, a nice climate action movie festival could round up the initiative. TEAM Team #2 Ombeline Cindy Philip Clemens
