[[ISO 140001]] is the International Standard for Environmental Management, issued by the [[International Standards Organisation]]. It sets out a framework upon which an organisation can more effectively control the adverse impacts of its activities or services on the environment. It requires processes and procedures to be implemented throughout an organisation so that potential environmental aspects and their related impacts on the environment can be identified and subsequently reduced or controlled.  Implementation of an environmental management system can lead to increased operating efficiencies in energy and water usage as well as reductions in waste and other such pollutants e.g. emissions to air or watercourses.
