Strategic environmental management is a rapidly evolving field of study that considers how the environmental investments that organizations make can become potential sources of competitive advantage. This book examines the different types of environmentally competitive strategies that companies are employing. Each chapter provides readers with a comprehensive analytic framework which they can use to understand the formation, definition, implementation and control of these different strategies. An exemplar case is introduced at the beginning of the book that is referred to throughout to 'ground' these strategies and the theories that underpin them.
