Environmental
Management Strategies
This is a comparative study of the environmental management activities and
strategies adopted by firms in the United Kingdom and Germany. As well as
looking at what firms in the two countries do to manage their impact on
the environment, the study asks what influences them do it, and what
prevents them from doing more. Walter Wehrmeyer, Marcus Wagner,
Carlos Pacheco, and Stefan Schaltegger find that firms in the UK and
Germany are at very similar stages in their approaches to environmental
management - with attention focused on energy use reduction, and
recycling. Procedures such as the use of waste streams from other
firms, the substitution of non-renewable materials, and green product
design were equally rare in both countries. "Environmental Management
Strategies: Britain and Germany Compared" is published by the Anglo-German Foundation.
