Making Climate Action Practical for SMEs
Achieve Sustainability is a local sustainability consultancy that helps small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) turn climate commitments into real action. Many businesses know they need to respond to growing expectations from customers, employees, and investors—but don’t always have the time, tools, or expertise to get there. That’s where we step in.
Our work focuses on three key areas:
- Carbon accounting, and decarbonization planning and implementation – measuring emissions, setting targets, and building realistic roadmaps for reduction. Recent projects have included greenhouse gas target setting through SBTi and developing net zero plans through Canada’s Net Zero Challenge.
- Greenwashing avoidance – ensuring that sustainability claims are credible, transparent, and backed by data to avoid reputational risk and stiff penalties.
- Leadership and staff education – equipping teams with the knowledge and tools to embed sustainability and climate resilience into daily operations.
What sets us apart is our hands-on, collaborative approach. We don’t deliver generic reports—we work alongside business leaders to embed sustainability into operations in ways that are practical, measurable, and impactful. For many clients, this means responding to key client requests to attract and retain more business, reduce costs, and future-proof their business.
We also believe in giving back to our community. Through our affiliated foundation, Climate Impact Fund, we support initiatives that build climate literacy and empower communities to take action. Initiatives have included climate and biodiversity workshops, bike hubs and cycling education, heat pump studies, and tree planting.
Being part of Partners in Project Green (PPG) has been a real benefit to us. We’re grateful for the chance to share knowledge with peers, gain new insights, and contribute to a community that is advancing sustainability across the Greater Toronto Area.
At Achieve Sustainability, we believe that climate action doesn’t have to be overwhelming — it just has to start. PPG provides the support to help businesses take that step.
