You have the power today to shape a healthier, greener tomorrow—for your business and your community.
At Access Plus Capital, we believe small business owners can lead the way toward a more sustainable Central Valley. That’s why we created the Green Futures loan—an opportunity to invest in clean upgrades, reduce costs, and do good for the planet without sacrificing your bottom line.
Small businesses across the Central Valley are already feeling the effects of climate change. Here’s what we’re up against :
50% of the largest wildfires in CA history happened since 2018
Driest period in 1,200 years — climate change worsened it by 42%
Sea levels projected to rise up to 55 inches by 2100
More intense storms and flooding from atmospheric rivers
$39B agriculture industry at risk from heat and water shortages
That’s why we launched the Green Futures Loan — to help Central Valley businesses prepare, adapt, and lead.
Why It Matters : Climate change impacts us all—but especially our region. Businesses in the Central Valley face extreme heat, poor air quality, and rising utility costs. Small changes can lead to big impact—and we’re here to help you get started.
