On September 1st 1996, ISO 14001 was published, worldwide. Written
over five years in consultation with international industrial
experts, non-governmental organizations and regulators, this
environmental management systems standard will help organizations
manage their impacts on the environment, no matter what their size,
nature or location. The implications for the future are enormous.
But what does the standard mean in the real world? What changes do
managers have to make to accommodate its principles? What decisions
need to be faced and when? Is it really going to make a difference
or is it just another case of global greenwash? Will it be another
missed opportunity for you, your organisation, or your market? At
the start of what promises to be a worldwide explosion of interest
in standardised EMSs, ISO 14001 and Beyond looks at their creation,
their use, and their limitations, attempting to discover the
essential truth about this important management tool and where it
will take industry. ISO 14001 and Beyond assembles the leading
thinkers and practitioners in the field to record their thoughts
and experiences on the new standard, its advantages and
disadvantages. The book is designed to provide the reader with
enough information with which to form an opinion on the future, and
how that will influence subsequent actions. It also provides
reassurance that, although the problems are real, so are the
solutions. ISO 14001 and Beyond gives you the opportunity to read
what some of the best minds have made of the standard so far and
what they think lies ahead. There are reports covering a global
spectrum of concern: from the US, Russia, Japan, Canada, Germany,
the UK, and more; from multinationals, small- and medium-sized
enterprises, local government, universities and professional
bodies. All this material is gathered together in one book to give
you the best, most meaningful information for the crucial decisions
that you will need to make in the coming months.
