Corporate Governance for Sustainable Environment - Hardcover

Corporate Governance For Sustainable Environment [Hardcover]

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Language: English. Environmental degradation has assumed alarming dimensions today. This has made environmental management a specialised field which is beyond the scope of governments. Environment is a global issue unrelated to national boundaries. It requires a set up that is above the national concerns and of universal nature. This book highlights this fact and emphasizes on the Corporate Governance of Environment. What is more is that, this work fixes the social responsibility of the corporates, discusses the practices and tools necessary for it and more importantly stresses upon the building of financial capacity to carry out commitments on environmental front. There is a correction between poverty and environment. More poverty leads to greater environmental degradation and conversely environmental degradation breeds in poverty. This makes poverty alleviation a major agenda for corporate governance. This fact finds sound logic and representation in this work. Thus, the book is of great merit for environmentalists, global researches, policy makers and students alike.
