In this regard, iso 14000 is: a series of environmental management standards prepared by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) covering six areas: environmental managing systems; environmental auditing; environmental labelling; environmental performance evaluation; life cycle assessment; terms and definitions. Most of the standards are intended as guidance documents on environmental tools and systems to help companies and other organizations integrate environmental considerations into their normal business processes.
