The Sustainable Procurement Pledge

SPP is proud to partner with WBCSD – World Business Council for Sustainable Development on the Business Action Bank — one of the world’s largest open-access collections of real, implemented climate solutions by and for business. We love seeing businesses lead the change with concrete solutions that prove climate action and business success go hand in hand. With more than 160 business actions already live, the platform is turning ambition into impact — supporting the COP30 Presidency’s vision of a “Granary of Solutions.” This is a powerful signal for COP30: businesses aren’t waiting — they’re delivering. As a proud partner, SPP will continue working with WBCSD to grow this living library, adding even more real-life solutions from our SPP community focused on sustainable procurement and tangible climate progress. Join us in scaling to 1,000+ solutions by COP31 and showcasing how business can be a driving force for change. #COP30 #BusinessActionBank #WBCSD #SustainableProcurement #ProcureTomorrow
