Varying Approaches to Environmental Management

December 18th, 2009

The term EMS or Environmental Management System, is used very loosely and many of these approaches do not include a system.

All EMS programs start with some form of environmental audit and this is an essential first step but knowing what is wrong and doing something about it are two different things. There is no reason why, given appropriate tools and guidance, businesses should not initially audit their environmental impacts themselves. They know more about their business than anyone else but they do need to open their eyes to practices they had never realised pose an environmental risk. They need to work through a very systematic approach and do this with their eyes open.

Once they have an audit in place and understand the issues, an audit alone is not effective – it only identifies problems. The next step is to develop an environmental management plan (EMP), which hopefully has been based on analysing risks identified by the audit findings. An environmental management plan still does not necessarily lead to good environmental management because there is no feedback loop. It is so easy to leave things until tomorrow, which never comes. » Read more: Varying Approaches to Environmental Management

Environmental Management Systems and Environmental Management Tools

August 13th, 2009

The series is made up of documents related to EMS – environmental management tools (i.e.,all other ISO 14000 series documents). This approach takes the view that establishment and implementation of an organization’s EMS is of central importance in determining the organization’s environmental policy,objectives,and targets. Environmental management tools exist to assist the organization in realizing its environmental policy, objectives, and targets.

Environmental Aspects

Identifying the environmental aspects of an organization’s activities, product and services, and determining their relative signification, are important elements of implementing an EMS or conducting EPE (environmental performance evaluation) inan organization. ISO 14001, ISO 14004 and ISO 14031 provide guidance on identifying significant environmental aspects.

ISO 14040 states in its introduction: “LCA (life cycle assessment) is a techniquefor assessing the environmental aspects and potential impacts associated (with products and services ) …LCA can assist in identifying opportunities to improve the environmental aspects of (products and services) at various points in their life cycle”.

 

Reporting and communicating

In general, the management of an organization will decide the content format of any environmental reporting or communicating. However, the organization may find that it has a number of different reporting needs and intended audiences. ISO 14001 and ISO 14004 provide guidance on reporting and communicating information on the environmental aspects and the EMS of an organization. ISO 14010 and ISO 14011 provide guidance on the preparation,content and distributions and claims can be viewed as ways in which the environmental aspects of products and services are reported or communicated, the ISO 14020 standards provide appropriate guidance. ISO 14031 provide appropriate guidance on reporting and communicating performance of an organization. The ISO 14040 standards provide guidance on reporting and communicating the results of an LCA study.
