description | The industrialization process, accelerated in the last
decades of the 20th century and continued in the 21st century,
determined, together with the beneficial effects manifested in the increase
in quality of life, the appearance of some pollutants, especially in the
areas where people live, work and entertain themselves. The risk is a
situation/condition/event that, if occurs, generates an unfavorable effect
both on the objectives, resources and reputation of the organization and
on the successful achievement of its tasks/activities/mission. The
environmental risk can manifest itself under the form of stressors (risk
factors) generated by the human activity/inactivity and can generate
adverse effects on the environment, and also the degradation and loss of
sustainability. In order to ease the evaluation of the status/quality of the
environment and facilitate the reporting and communication of the
environmental performances of an organization, the present paper
synthetically presents a series of environmental indicators, and also the
description of the essential requirements of the voluntary environment
standards in the ISO 14000 series. |
