    <fulldesc>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New Delhi, Nov 11 (KNN)&lt;/strong&gt; A hands-on workshop aimed at helping micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) measure and manage their carbon emissions will be held on November 13 at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi, as part of the India Sustainability Standards (ISS) Summit 2025. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The two-hour in-person session, scheduled from 3 pm to 5 pm, will introduce free climate-action tools tailored for small businesses.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Titled Building Climate-Ready MSMEs: Free Tools for Measuring and Managing Emissions, the workshop is being hosted by the SME Climate Hub (SMECH) in partnership with the Centre for Responsible Business (CRB) and the Federation of Indian Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (FISME).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The session will demonstrate SMECHs carbon calculators &amp;mdash; simple online tools designed to help MSMEs measure emissions, establish baselines, and plan decarbonisation steps.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Indias MSMEs play a critical role in the countrys low-carbon transition but often lack the resources to begin measuring emissions. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;With global regulatory pressures such as the EUs Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and increasing buyer requirements for climate disclosures, the organisers said MSMEs must build climate reporting capability to remain competitive in global supply chains.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The session will guide participants in identifying emission hotspots, planning reduction strategies and communicating climate efforts to stakeholders. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;It will also address practical queries on measurement and reporting, while connecting MSMEs to a global initiative backed by the UN Race to Zero campaign.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;MSECH, supported by the We Mean Business Coalition, Exponential Roadmap Initiative and UN Climate Change High-Level Champions, provides free resources to help SMEs commit to climate targets and track progress. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The workshop will offer a live demonstration of carbon calculators designed for businesses at different stages of their climate journey, from beginners to multi-site enterprises.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Participants are expected to leave with a basic understanding of how to calculate emissions, use climate tools and align with buyer and regulatory expectations as they take early steps toward decarbonisation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
