Environment framework

The GoodCorporation Environment Framework provides set of responsible practices and procedures to help improve the robustness of any organisation’s environmental performance management. There are 43 framework points across 9 topics, including the governance of environmental topics, identifying and evaluating environmental risks and impacts of business activities, developing an effective environmental strategy and ensuring compliance to applicable environmental regulations. 

It can be used to design or evaluate how environmental topics are managed as a whole or how specific issues are treated - such as greenhouse gas emissions, biodiversity impact, water use and land use for example. Use of the framework can also help organisations develop their sustainability strategies and embed environmental best practices into their business strategy. 

For organisations looking to develop an environmental roadmap, the framework can be used as a tool to perform a gap analysis against their current environmental management practices, enabling strengths and areas for improvement to be identified. As a high-level environment governance referential, it offers non-technical guidance to support organisations in managing their environmental responsibilities with regards to setting targets, improving environmental performance and meeting reporting requirements. 

Applicable to all relevant environmental issues, the framework can be used to help organisations align with global environmental standards and legislation by supporting the development of effective environmental management practices.
