Green Management

Abstract

Green Management is a collection of environmental and ecological articles relating to management. The collection is intended to provide students and managers with an overview of the importance of "green" management to business and industry. In particular, it addresses the major questions of green management ? why should management be environmentally conscious and how can it balance the requirements of business success with environmental awareness and behavior. The focus of this reader is not only on the development of an environmental management system via the introduction of environmental plans and policies, but also on the role of top management and individual departments in contributing to this development.
