An EMS helps an organization reduce its impact on the environment while simultaneously improving operating efficiency. The ISO 14000 suite of standards provides practical tools that help organizations of all kinds to manage their environmental responsibilities. ISO 14001:2015 focuses on environmental systems to achieve this.
