The rise of greenwashing, the deceptive practice of making misleading claims about environmental responsibility has created challenges for those trying to distinguish genuine sustainability efforts from marketing ploys. ISO 14001, an internationally recognised standard for Environmental Management Systems (EMS), provides a robust framework to combat greenwashing and promote genuine sustainability. https://lnkd.in/eFJjhP3a #ccsrisk #iso14001 #greenwashing #energy #energyindustry #energyefficiency #energysavings #energynews #ems #environmental #environmentalmanagement #green #greenenergy #environmentalconsulting #environnement #isostandard #isocertification #iso #iso #isocertification #isocertified #isoconsultants #isocertificationbody #ukas #isostandards #isoconsultant #isoconsultancy #iso50001 #enms #netzero
