Environmental Resilience
Extreme weather events and natural disasters pose significant threats to the survival of small businesses, impacting operations, supply chains, and financial stability. Building environmental resilience is essential for long-term sustainability, ensuring businesses can withstand disruptions and recover effectively.
​
By integrating sustainable practices, disaster preparedness, and community-driven solutions, small businesses can reduce risk, protect assets, and contribute to a more resilient local economy.
Proactive planning not only safeguards businesses against environmental challenges but also strengthens their ability to adapt, innovate, and grow in an unpredictable climate.
