ISO 14001 Updates & Revisions and a Clean Reputation

It seems that the ISO 14001 standard will undergo further revisions and updates, among which are the provisions for management of natural resources and how procedures will adapt to climate change. While the committee draft was created last April, the new standard is not expected to take effect until 2015.

Unlike other standards, ISO 14001 isn’t limited to industries or organizations.
