Most industries in the world are major sources of environmental pollution yet they have not been able to procure appropriate mechanisms on successful pollution prevention programs that helps identify opportunities to incorporate pollution prevention measures throughout their daily operations. This book, therefore, provides an approach of using an Environmental Management System (EMS) based on ISO 14001 standards that aid to plan, implement, assess, and continually improve environmental management practices.
