This book is about the challenges and opportunities for companies realising the need for environmentally concious business decisions. The very diverse, international team of authors tries to get us to realise that successful environmental management pervades all business decisions, and does not limit itself to the technical, single issue approach. This book is based on the assumption that in order to be able to play an important role in calling a halt to environmental destruction environmental management needs to accept the complexity and the strategic nature of envirnmental issues and therefore give them the attention and organizational backing they deserve. It describes what role management practices play in a sustainable economy. This book, with contributions from individuals practising good environmental management in a wide range of businesses, takes a very positive view of the new concern with environmental issues. The book is aimed at senior and middle managers.
