It is believed that environmental management requires action at all levels, including by organisations of all types and sizes. However, it is not always clear what we mean by environmental management, or the roles that organisations do or could play. This unit explores the different interpretations and viewpoints involved by using systems thinking to provide a framework with which to better understand environmental management and organisations.
