Justification
There are 23 million SMEs in the EU, which comprises 99% of all enterprises, of which 96% employ less than 5 people. Combined they cause between 60%-70% of the EU?s industrial pollution. Environmental management systems are one way to ( ... )
Es to reduce their environmental impact, become more aware and compliant with environmental legislation. However, SMEs are not aware of the relevant legislation, their impact, and the methods available to reduce it. We propose an easy, tailor-made made methodology for SMEs to implement environmental management systems in a fast and cost-effective way.
