27、s to understand, demonstrate and improve their environmental performance. This can be achieved by effectively managing those elements of their activities, products and services that can significantly impact the environment.This International Standard sets out a process called environmental performan

28、ce evaluation (EPE) (see 3.10) which enables organizations to measure, evaluate and communicate their environmental performance using key performance indicators (KPIs), based on reliable and verifiable information.EPE is equally applicable to small and large enterprises and can be used to support an

29、 environmental management system (EMS) (see 3.7), or used independently. An organization with an EMS in place can assess its environmental performance against its environmental policy, objectives, targets and other environmental performance objectives.Data and information generated by EPE can be use

30、d by an organization to implement other environmental management tools and techniques in a coherent, transparent and cost effective way, e.g. other standards developed by ISO/TC 207 such as those relating to environmental management systems (ISO 14001, ISO 14004, ISO 14005, ISO 14006), to environmen

31、tal declarations (ISO 14025), to environmental labelling (ISO 14024) and to life cycle assessment (ISO 14040, ISO 14044). A full list is given in the Bibliography. This International Standard can also be used independently.Environmental performance evaluation and environmental audits are complementa

32、ry tools that can be used to assess environmental performance and identify areas for improvement. The key aspects (and differences) of these tools are the following: EPE is an ongoing process of collection and assessment of data and information to provide a current evaluation of performance, as well

33、 as performance trends over time; environmental audits can be used to gather such data and information, either as part of EPE, or as part of an environmental management system, to verify whether objectives and targets are being met; environmental management system audits are conducted periodically t

34、o verify conformity with specifications and compliance with legal and other requirements (guidance on auditing an EMS is provided in ISO 19011).

35、nternational Standard gives guidance on the design and use of environmental performance evaluation (EPE) within an organization. It is applicable to all organizations, regardless of type, size, location and complexity.This International Standard does not establish environmental performance levels. T

36、he guidance in this International Standard can be used to support an organizations own approach to EPE, including its commitments to compliance with legal and other requirements, the prevention of pollution, and continual improvement.NOTE This International Standard is a generic standard and does no

37、t include guidance on specific methods for valuing or weighting different kinds of impacts in different kinds of sectors, disciplines, etc. Depending on the nature of the organizations activities, it is often necessary to refer to other sources for additional information and guidance on sector-speci
