This guide covers two tightly connected topics, environmental management systems (EMS) and pollution prevention (P2), in a single volume. Providing the knowledge and tools for enterprise managers to achieve the benefits of both EMS and P2, this manual shows you how to implement an EMS, so that it leads to profitable pollution prevention innovations, as well as how to identify and implement pollution prevention measures in a sound strategic business framework. EMS are planned and organized ways for an enterprise to manage its interactions with the environment, specifically those that consume resources, degrade the environment, and create human health risk.
