Publisher's summary

The environment and its decline in health is the most important issue facing mankind today and is a subject everyone should have an understanding of, from business CEOs to the average person in society. By exploring topics such as biodiversity, ecosystem services, sustainability, and ecology, the listener will be equipped with the necessary foundational knowledge that is required before effective management strategies can be considered and implemented, either in business or at the home.

The problems facing the environment, such as; the impact of human activity, climate change, waste management, pollution, and mismanagement are discussed before examining some of the various strategies that can be used to assess the status of an environment. By understanding the complex functioning of a healthy ecosystem and having the ability to recognize potential threats, the informed citizen or Environmental Manager can apply their knowledge to mitigate risk and promote a healthy environment. With the insight and skills that this book provides, the listener will be able to engage with people, businesses, and organisations, encouraging them to strive for a sustainable future.

This book also explores environmental legislation and strategies for businesses, (particularly construction), that can be used to reduce the impact on the environment. How to approach environmental issues from a business-oriented perspective is vital and this book contains comprehensive explanations of how to use a range of management tools (such as Environmental Impact Assessments, and Risk and Opportunity registers).
