Our Net-Zero Commitments: SME Climate Hub x Y.O.U Underwear

What is the SME Climate Hub? 

The UK government is calling on Small to Medium sized companies to commit to cutting their carbon emissions in half by 2030, reaching ‘net zero’ by 2050 and disclosing emissions on a yearly basis.

SMEs represent 90% of business globally, employing 2 billion people and the hub contains a wealth of support and information to help enterprises reach their goals! The hub believes that climate action is everyone’s business.

What have Y.O.U Underwear Committed to?

As a sustainable business, its important to us to reduce our environmental impact as much as we can, and be transparent about it too. That's why we're sharing our commitment to be Net-Zero by 2030 - and we hope you'll join us on our journey! 

We've joined over 2000 SMEs over 79 countries to commit to a Net-Zero Future, and we hope to see bigger businesses and corporations take action too.

What are our Plans?

Our first step is calculating our current emissions and creating a plan. We're still working on our 'Net-Zero Action Plan' and will share it with you when it's ready. We'll continue our quarterly and bi-annual impact reporting with updates about our progress and actions. We'll be focusing on our digital sustainability, farming and manufacturing processes and further steps needed to achieve Net Zero. As an online business with eco-friendly employees, we already take steps to reduce our own carbon emissions.
