At Lime Sustainable Supplies, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword; it’s the foundation of everything we do. That’s why we’re incredibly proud to share that our entire team is now officially Carbon Literate, thanks to training delivered by the Better Business Network.

This achievement marks another important milestone in our journey as a purpose-led business. By becoming Carbon Literate, we’re taking proactive steps to deepen our understanding of climate change and actively reduce our environmental impact—both internally and in support of our customers.

What Is Carbon Literacy?

Carbon Literacy is more than just climate education. It’s a globally recognised training initiative that empowers individuals and organisations to understand the carbon impacts of their everyday actions and make informed decisions to reduce them. It covers climate science, carbon footprints, and practical actions tailored to business and individual contexts.

Why It Matters to Us

Our mission has always been to provide sustainable cleaning solutions that are good for people, the planet, and business. Gaining Carbon Literacy as a team enhances our ability to live that mission, every day.

How Carbon Literacy Strengthens Our Mission:

  • Empowered Decision-Making: Our team now makes more informed, climate-conscious choices across operations and supply chains.

  • Stronger Customer Support: We’re better equipped to guide our partners in meeting their own sustainability goals.

  • Deeper Commitment to Impact: Carbon Literacy strengthens our role as a purpose-driven business leading positive environmental change.

Looking Ahead

This is just one of many steps we’re taking as part of our broader commitment to environmental responsibility. From our B Corp Certification to our reforestation partnerships with Ecologi, we’re continually evolving to be the most responsible, transparent, and forward-thinking supplier in the industry.

Being Carbon Literate isn’t just about knowledge, it’s about action. And we’re excited to put this knowledge to work, helping our customers build greener, more resilient organisations.
