Environmental Business Management: An Introduction

Abstract

This work encourages business managers to take account of the needs of the threatened planet and dwindling natural resources, while simultaneously redefining the commercial interests involved. The book highlights opportunities for and threats to sustainable development. It leads the reader through the morass of existing and proposed regulations and guidelines which cover the areas encompassed by the term environmental management: the use of hazardous chemicals; toxic wastes and emissions; occupational health and safety; and environmental impact analysis. Completely revised and updated, this edition covers such current issues as measurement of environmental performance, quality aspects and environmental management systems (EMS) as stipulated by the European Management Audit Scheme (EMAS).
