This comprehensive book provides you with an in-depth discussion of the philosophy, concepts, and implementation of an Environmental Management System (EMS) and a thorough examination of the ISO 14000 series of international environmental standards. Divided into four sections, ISO 14001 contains practical information on how to develop and implement a certifiable EMS and explains why implementation should be done. The first two sections examine modern environmentalism, the development of environmental awareness, Environmental Management Systems, the ISO 14000 series, and ISO 14000's relation to ISO 9000:2000. These sections also examine the ISO 14001 standard clause-by-clause. Sections Three and Four emphasize auditing and accounting and provide case studies in environmental management and pollution prevention. Appendices include an extensive glossary, a list of ISO members, the International Chamber of Commerce's Business Charter for Sustainable Development, and a list of acronyms.
