About the product

Maurice Strong, the Secretary-General of UNCED stated that every business that impacted on the environment must accommodate the fact that the environment would have an important impact on its business. This publication is the final report on the Benchmark Corporate Environmental Survey and contains data from 210 responding transnational corporations worldwide. With in-depth statistical analysis of the responses to the questionnaire, as well as detailed analysis of management practices in individual corporations, this report is a comprehensive study of corporate environmental management practices. Recommendations on specific areas such as atmospheric pollution, biodiversity and toxic chemical issues are also discussed.
