Biography
Stephen Tinsley is Vice Principal of Corporate Development at Edinburgh College, UK.
Environmental Management systems are sometimes accused of being box ticking exercises. And indeed they are. Stephen Tinsley shows that they need not be. This is a text for connoisseurs of how businesses can grapple with low carbon corporate strategies in an organised and effective manner. It is easy to read and illustrated with actual examples. This book offers an important step which many businesses, having read it, may more confidently follow.
Professor Tim O'Riorden, Emeritus Professor of Environmental Sciences at the University of East Anglia, UKEnvironmental management isn’t a luxury bolt-on for business, but rather an essential toolkit in the managerial armoury if businesses are to survive and to adapt in an era when the climate and environment are changing more rapidly and fundamentally than at any time in the last several thousand years. This timely book sets out the skills necessary as the world slowly by irrevocably transforms to a low-carbon economy.
