Customer Reviews:
Nothing to read.......2003-07-25
It looks like ISO 14001 requirements + ISO 14001 comments + a few words of own opinion + some procedures from imaginary company (It seems they have never been at work). So If you have visited any ISO 14001 course, you don't need this book.
Best of Class in the ISO 14000 literature.......1999-07-06
This book is the current Best of Class within ISO 14000 literature. It is the next step in a progression from theory to practice. It describes individual sections of the ISO 14001 standard, explains the meaning in an integrated context, and demonstrates application through a fictitious company that is introduced early precisely for this purpose, Those who seek knowledge about ISO 14001 may select from a variety of excellent texts. Those who would apply it in the real world should buy this book first.
New ideas even for the experienced IS0 14001 practitioner.......1999-05-21
This authors have produced a book which should be helpful not only to the new ISO 14001 practitioner, but also to those who have years experience. The book provide ideas on how to develop an EMS which is not complicated, with examples of easy to read procedures for the core documentation of an EMS. The included GAP Analysis questions shall provide direction to those implementing their first/own EMS. Recommend reading for all.

Green to Gold: How Smart Companies Use Environmental Strategy to Innovate, Create Value, and Build Competitive Advantage
ASIN: 0750674016 |
Book Description
Green Profits covers two tightly connected topics, environmental management systems (EMS) and pollution prevention (P2), in a single volume. Authored by an environmental engineer and an economist/planner, Green Profits shows how to implement an EMS, especially ISO 14001, so that it leads to profitable pollution prevention innovations, and how to identify and implement pollution prevention measures in a sound strategic business framework. Green Profits provides the knowledge and tools for enterprise managers to achieve the benefits of both EMS and P2, and to do so in ways that fit in with existing management systems in their enterprises.
Environmental management systems are planned and organized ways for an enterprise to manage its interactions with the environment, in particular those interactions that consume resources, degrade the environment, and create human health risk. Part I of Green Profits provides a thorough and practical understanding of the elements of EMSs in general and ISO 14001 in particular, tools and techniques for implementing an EMS and achieving ISO 14001 certification, and help with getting the implementation process started.
Pollution prevention involves replacing process technologies that generate pollution with those that do not or that do so much less. It focuses on improving production processes to minimize waste rather than treating effluents or emissions, which add to costs. Part II of Green Profits provides tools such as step-by-step guides to conducting a P2 audit and energy and material balances for identifying P2 opportunities in an enterprise; examples of P2 practices in specific industry sectors; and a set of tools for assessing potential P2 investments from a bottom-line point of view.
With this New Handbook -- · Bring your facility into compliance · Improve your corporate image · Reduce your company's environmental liabilities · Identify and save millions of dollars from pollution prevention projects
This New Handbook Includes -- · A step-by-step approach to implementing ISO 14001 · A step-by-step approach to implementing Pollution Prevention · Contains nearly 100 useful charts and tables used by the experts in establishing environmental action plans, gap analyses, establishing an Environmental Management System · Contains dozens of useful charts and calculation methods with examples for evaluating the costs and savings to your company in implementing Pollution Prevention · Dozens of industry-specific case studies that you can learn and profit from
· Shows you in stepwise fashion how project financing principles and environmental cost accounting methods, when coupled with EMS can save your company money
This New Handbook is unique because unlike other volumes that separately cover Environmental Management Systems and Pollution Prevention, you have it all in one single volume, written by Experts that are Practitioners.

Review of Green Profits.......2002-10-19
This is an excellent book to generate cost saving ideas from. It combines simple engineering and management principles with a focus on proving to the reader how good environmental performance translates into good economic performance. The authors have done a great job in showing the basic prinicples and benefits of pollution prevention within the context of environmental management systems. The many industry-specific examples on P2 and waste minimization are simply excellent. I highly recommend this book for environmental managers.
Green Profits: The Managers Handbook for ISO 14001 and P2.......2002-10-12
Very informative book with new concepts on how to apply life cycle costs to pollution prevention projects. This book brings together two related subjects very clearly. It has helped our refineries see more clearly how an EMS can be applied within the context of pollution prevention. It clearly shows by many examples reasons for displacing end of pipe treatment trechnologies.
Green Profits: The Managers Handbook for ISO 14001 and P2.......2002-10-08
This is an excellent text that shows both engineers and managers how to apply principles to reducing environmental compliance costs. The works of Dr. Cheremisinoff are well known in the environmental management and pollution prevention fields. This book is a wonderful source of ideas and techniques for senior environmental managers.
Profitable pollution prevention innovations.......2001-09-07
Nicholas Cheremisinoff is a consulting engineer with more than twenty years experience in design, research, development, manufacturing, and teaching. Avrom Bendavid-Val is Vice President for Environment and Development at Chermonics International Inc. In Green Profits: The Manager's Handbook for ISO 14001 And Pollution Prevention, Cheremisinoff and Bendavid-Val effectively collaborate to cover the two tightly connected topics of environmental management systems (EMS) and pollution prevention (P2). Together they show how to implement an EMS (especially ISO 14001) so that it leads to profitable pollution prevention innovations, and how to identify and implement pollution prevention measures within the context of a sound and strategic business framework. Green Profits provides the information and tools enterprising managers can apply to achieve the benefits of both EMS and P2 -- and do so in ways that fit within the corporation's existing management systems. Nicholas Cheremisinoff and Avrom Bendavid-Val Green Profits is a highly recommended addition to academic, professional, and corporate environmental engineering reference collections.

ISO 14001 Implementation Manual
ASIN: 0471153605 |
Book Description
With the establishment of new international standards for environmental management systems (EMS), many managers are faced with the daunting and often bewildering task of creating management systems that enable their companies to conform to these standards. In their haste and confusion, however, many companies implement bureaucratic, ineffective systems that add no real value to their businesses.
The ISO 14001 Implementation Guide: Creating an Integrated Management System shows you how to use the ISO 14001 standard to improve your company's productivity and profitability while meeting registration requirements. Using a practical, business-oriented approach, this authoritative book details the background and development of the ISO 14000 series of standards, fully explains the requirements of 14001, and offers hands-on guidance on how to implement an effective EMS. It highlights common but costly mistakes, and leads you step-by-step through the creation of an EMS that will result in a more competitive business as well as a cleaner environment.
Suzan L. Jackson draws on her experience as an ISO 9000 and ISO 14000 consultant and trainer and as a member of the U.S. Technical Advisory Group to ISO Technical Committee 207, which is developing the ISO 14000 environmental management standards. With her insider's perspective, Jackson demonstrates how the implementation of a cohesive, well-defined management system helps cut costs, increase efficiency, and focus energies. In addition, she provides insights into ways of successfully integrating ISO 9000, ISO 14001, and other management systems.
The ISO 14001 Implementation Guide provides a wealth of proven tips, techniques, and tools that help ensure smooth, trouble-free, and efficient EMS implementation, including critical success factors, flowcharts for setting up the elements of an environmental management system, helpful tips, and advice for avoiding common pitfalls.
With its timely, straightforward, and on-target advice, The ISO 14001 Implementation Guide is the definitive, practical guide for environmental and quality professionals and managers who need to develop an environmental management system that will improve business as well as meet the ISO 14001 standard.

ISO 14001 will be an important, but difficult, step into the future for much of U.S. industryâthis book should be close at hand for those taking that step."âDorothy P. Bowers, Vice President, Environmental and Safety Policy , Merck & Co., Inc.

"A remarkably easy-to-read, highly authoritative guide to a very complex standard. Suzan Jackson shows us how environmental management and business ,improvement are no longer mutually exclusive goals." âRobin Gildersleeve, President, INFORM (International Forum for Management Systems, Inc.)

Customer Reviews:
Simply ISO 14001.......2000-01-20
This book is an invaluable asset in the EHS managers' quiver of reference tools. Ms Jackson presents what initially seems like a disjointed standard in terms that a layman can understand. Additionally, she adds insight and tips to guide even the seasoned veteran through the labyrinth of requirements that is ISO 14001. Graphics, examples and case studies are used throughout the book to impart to the reader a practical implementation scheme based on business case scenarios.
Excellent Reference for Creating an EMS.......1999-02-21
I would consider the book to be helpful to both the novice as well as the seasoned EMS Manager. The writers style makes the detailed subject readable and enjoyable. I look forward to seeing addtional books on this subject from Ms. Jackson.

Book Description
ISO 14001 Environmental Systems Handbook Second Edition outlines the scope and purpose of the standard, making it accessible to all.
The author begins by explaining the concepts of the standard, which sets the tone for a practical guide to implementation of an ISO 14000-compliant environmental management system, which also covers the consultant's and auditor's perspective.
The case studies from industries that have actually undergone the process have been updated to include information on their progress toward environmental objectives in the 18-24 months following implementation. A new case study from a service organisation ( a car lease company) will be added. Finally there is input from training organisations and certification and accreditation bodies to assist with trouble-shooting and assessment. Additional information is also included on international legislative issues. Comparisons with ISO 9000 will also be fully updated to reflect revisions to this standard.
The book will offer the reader a range of options for implementation, and guidance on which is the best option to suit the particular organisation's culture.
* Fully updated to meet the new 2004 amendments to ISO 14001
* New case studies to show how ISO14001 is being implemented and is working for key organisations
