Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn a step-by-step, methodical approach to maximizing the long-term profitability and sustainability of your business by merging pollution prevention (P2) techniques with an environmental management system (EMS). This book shows you how to manage both regulatory and voluntary environmental concerns, enabling your company to improve production efficiencies and product quality, reduce direct costs for waste, control near- and long-term environmental liabilities, reduce the direct and indirect costs of compliance, and anticipate future compliance challenges. Achieving Environmental Excellence begins with overviews of EMS and P2 and with an overview of the integrated EMS/P2 framework that companies can apply to any or all of their operations. The authors then closely examine the five phases of implementing an integrated EMS/P2 program. Within these phases, the authors address the personnel issues and responsibilities, company policies, and life cycle analysis tools you need to develop the most cost-effective pollution prevention investment strategies for your facility. They also examine how the activities in each phase and the requirements of ISO 14001 relate and how your company would fulfill ISO 14001 certification requirements through an integrated EMS/P2 approach.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of the best and most successful companies are no longer content to do the minimum required to achieve compliance with environmental regulations. Instead, a new standard of environmental excellence has arisen. A high-quality environmental system is now seen both as a means to regulatory compliance and as a very cost-effective way of increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of operations in general. In this way, the environmental audit often serves as a significant driver for improvement within the overall management system. Auditing for Environmental Quality Leadership details these new techniques and practices in environmental auditing and shows how their place in a Total Quality Environmental Management System can help companies achieve environmental excellence and a competitive advantage. Sponsored by the Environmental Auditing Roundtable, this book covers the major topics in defining, conducting, assessing, and improving an environmental audit. Unique in its breadth and depth of coverage, this book includes: Comprehensive treatment of environmental auditing by recognized leaders in the field Application of Total Quality Environmental Management methods to develop efficient environmental auditing programs that delve into root causes and sort out what adds value from what does not Analysis of the movement toward standardization of environmental auditing principles and practices, including such timely international issues as efforts to produce North American standards, the European Eco-label and Audit scheme, and the International Standard Organization's ISO 9000 and 14000 series Examination of innovative auditing programs developed by leading corporations and trade organizations, including Allied Signal, Union Carbide, Lockheed, and many others Latest methods of information management technology and automated auditing for assembling, auditing, and reviewing environmental data Because of its thorough, authoritative examination of the issues, illuminating case studies, and wealth of practical guidance, environmental professionals and corporate and government managers will find Auditing for Environmental Quality Leadership essential reading on this crucial topic. Auditing for Environmental Quality Leadership Beyond Compliance to Environmental Excellence To meet the challenges of regulatory compliance, international standards, and the need to "work smarter" in today's marketplace, greater emphasis is being placed on environmental auditing—especially among the most forward-looking companies. In this book, you will find a comprehensive presentation of the entire field of environmental auditing by leading experts in the field. It covers the latest practices and shows, through specific case studies, how major corporations are applying them to achieve environmental excellence and competitive advantage. Sponsored by the Environmental Auditing Roundtable, this book covers the major procedures used in defining, conducting, assessing, and improving an environmental auditing program. Such timely and important subjects as Total Quality Environmental Management, the internationalization of standards, and the use of information technology are clearly presented and explored.

Download or read book Managing Green Teams written by John Moxen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-20 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To reach environmental excellence, organizations must unlock and channel the ideas and energies of their staff. This can only be achieved through the effective leadership and commitment of senior managers and the development of sound teamworking throughout the organization. To this end, forward-looking organizations have formulated a range of teams, including: environmental steering committees; environmental action teams; process improvement teams; and quality and environment circles. The aims of this book are to bring together practical experiences and theoretical developments in relation to the role of teamworking within the context of environmental management. Contributions from an international group of leading practitioners and academics present examples of how teamworking can be utilised to solve the complex and uncertain environmental challenges that organisations face. The book is divided into three key sections. The first section examines – in a number of different organizational contexts – the problems that confront managers during the process of forming and developing environmental teams. In the second section, the book examines how environmental teams can trigger changes in core operations and integrate environmental concerns in business decision-making at every level in the organization. In the final section, the focus of the book shifts to environmental networks and their role as inter-organizational co-ordinators. Managing Green Teams: Environmental Change in Organisations and Networks will be of particular interest to educationalists, consultants and practitioners. Teamworking is a well-established field, but, to date, no book has made any attempt to fully integrate teamworking and environmental issues.

This book was released on 2022-03-18 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of the up-to-date experience and knowledge about the implementation of sustainable business excellence in a particular context of SMEs. The book uses empirical and practical approach to tackle this issue, which is underdeveloped in the literature. Hence, it could constitute a relevant reference for SMEs managers seeking to manage their operations sustainably, efficiently and resiliently. The book also integrates the smart component to the sustainable business excellence and proves for those who are still skeptical that SMEs could benefit from smart and digital technology in the favor of sustainability and business excellence. Overall, we build on successful initiatives we experienced in real life to guide SMEs in order to be sustainable smart and resilient in the post COVID context which is highly demanding in terms of business excellence and efficiency.

Download or read book Greener Marketing written by Martin Charter and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-29 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on the strengths of the material published in the hugely successful first edition of Greener Marketing, this important new title examines on a global scale the progress of environmental marketing in the 1990s and considers how social issues are increasingly becoming critical factors in how corporations meet the ever-growing demands and expectations of customers. Despite the fact that such issues are increasingly important in marketing activities around the world, it is difficult for practitioners to keep up to date with complex and rapidly changing information and ideas. The purpose of this book is to provide practitioners and academics with best-practice examples and actionable recommendations on how to implement and appraise green marketing activities. It will provide information and ideas for those involved in marketing on how to incorporate environmental and social considerations, as well as providing new perspectives on marketing for environmental managers. To achieve a comprehensive viewpoint, the book is split into three sections. The first sets out the strategic issues and rationale for green marketing, the second addresses tactical issues in more detail, and the third provides detailed international case studies. Topics addressed by the global set of contributors include the growing area of products versus services, environmental product development, green marketing alliances, environmental communications, green consumers, eco-tourism and environmental marketing in developing countries. reener Marketing is not only a sequel to the successful first volume, but redefines global progress towards the successful marketing of greener products and services.

Download or read book The 10 Principles of Food Industry Sustainability written by Cheryl J. Baldwin and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-03-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the food industry is beginning to make headway with its sustainability initiatives, substantially more progress is needed in order to feed the world’s growing population sustainably. The challenge is that the topic of sustainability can seem overwhelming and there is limited information that is specific to the food industry. Written by an experienced food industry professional with years of experience in sustainability, The 10 Principles of Food Industry Sustainability inspires and informs the progress required to nourish the population, revitalize natural resources, enhance economic development, and close resource loops. The book makes this complex topic approachable and actionable by identifying the most pressing sustainability priorities across the entire food supply chain and showing, with tools and examples, how producers, processors, packers, distributors, marketers and retailers all play a role in advancing improvement. The book begins with an overview of the Principles of sustainability in the food industry: what they are and why they matter. Subsequent chapters focus on each of the Ten Principles in detail: how they relate to the food industry, their global relevance (including their environmental, health, and social impacts), and the best practices to achieve the potential of meaningful and positive progress that the Principles offer. Specific examples from industry are presented in order to provide scalable solutions and bring the concepts to life, along with top resources for further exploration. The Principles, practices, and potential of sustainability in the food industry covered in this book are designed to be motivating and to offer a much-needed and clear way forward towards a sustainable food supply.
