As the UK experiences unprecedented high temperatures, your tourism business may well be benefiting from increased sales. However, whilst ice creams are flying off the shelves a much bigger dilemma is presented\u2026<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

How can your business stop climate change?<\/p>\n

Whilst the Government has outlined its plan to be Net Zero by 2050, your business should have a plan in place to lower its carbon footprint.<\/p>\n

Especially as the Government recently released its \u2018Jet Zero\u2019 plan<\/a>, which aims to make the aviation sector Net Zero by 2050, local tourism businesses must be able to demonstrate how they contribute to this goal.<\/p>\n

So, how can your business go green?<\/p>\n

Invest in renewable technology <\/strong><\/p>\n

Whilst it can be an expensive investment, opting to invest in renewable energy sources will no doubt pay off in the long run.<\/p>\n

If your business offers accommodation, one big change that you could make is to switch to solar-powered energy sources.<\/p>\n

When considering the cost associated with this, it is useful to know that expenses on energy-saving technologies are eligible for enhanced capital allowances, so you can deduct the full cost associated with this move from your profits before calculating tax.<\/p>\n

Additionally, when considering switching to renewable resources, the long-term cost benefits should be factored into your business plan.<\/p>\n

Rather than being subject to volatile energy prices, switching to this will lower your running costs, alongside your business\u2019s carbon footprint.<\/p>\n

Source local produce <\/strong><\/p>\n

Not only does using locally sourced produce lower the harmful emissions of importing food and drink, but it also demonstrates to your customers that you care for your local community.<\/p>\n

By supporting your local economy, you will be able to offer fresher and high-quality ingredients to guests, which may warrant a price increase.<\/p>\n

It can also give you greater control over your supply chain as your business will be less susceptible to external market fluctuations.<\/p>\n

To ensure your business meets the Net Zero target, you will need to have a thorough business plan in place for how you will afford these changes.<\/p>\n
