19、ause of increased public concern and interest, andgovernmental activities related to the environment. Organizations all over the world are increasingly confrontedwith the need to express their views, and present and explain the environmental implications of their activities,products and services. Th

20、ere is also a growing need to listen to interested parties, and incorporate their viewsand requirements as part of environmental communication.Organizations have a need to obtain and provide information about and respond to environmental issues,concerns and programmes. This is influenced by factors

21、such as the organizations geographic location anddistribution, size and types of activities. Motivations for communication can include the following: the interest of the organization to share information on its environmental practices; a request for information by employees or investors, a governmen

22、t agency, a community group, a customeror supplier, or any other interested party; the need to discuss with interested parties, especially with target groups, a proposed action of theorganization, such as expansion of an existing facility, or siting of a new facility, or the introduction of a newpro

23、duct or service; environmental risk management; a regulatory requirement; response to complaints from interested parties; the increasing importance of addressing environmental issues.Environmental communication is the process of sharing information to build trust, credibility and partnerships, torai

24、se awareness, and to use in decision making. The processes used and the content of environmentalcommunication will vary with the objectives and circumstances of the organization and should be built onsubstantive information.0.2 Environmental communication is broader than environmental reporting. It

25、has many purposes and takesmany forms. Environmental communication can be ad hoc or planned. An example of ad hoc communicationoccurs when a facility manager attends a community event and answers questions. Planned communicationcan cover the range from limited to full participation of interested par

26、ties as shown below.a) One-way communication occurs when the organization distributes information, for example when anorganization issues an environmental report with no opportunity for questions or discussion.b) Two-way communication occurs with an exchange of information and ideas among the organi

27、zation andinterested parties.c) In participatory decision-making, including effective feedback that affects the organization and/or the localcommunity, an organization collaborates with interested parties.0.3 Engagement with interested parties provides an opportunity for an organization to learn the

28、ir issues andconcerns; it can lead to knowledge being gained by both sides and can influence opinions and perceptions.When properly done, any particular approach can be successful and satisfy the needs of the organization andinterested parties. In some cases, understanding the communication pattern/

29、behaviour of each interested party(or target group) is also important in environmental communications. The most effective environmentalcommunication process involves ongoing contact by the organization with internal and external interestedparties, as part of the organizations overall communications

31、andperformance, providing inputs/suggestions for improving the environmental performance of an organizations activities,products and services, and progress toward sustainability, improving understanding of interested parties needs and concerns to foster trust and dialogue, promoting an organizations

35、perceptions of the organization, and increasing business support and shareholder confidence.Environmental communication is one of the crucial issues to be dealt with by any organization, with or withoutan environmental management system (EMS) in place. Environmental communication is more than a ques

To ensure successful communicationprocesses, it is important for the organization to consider itself a responsible partner within society and toaddress the environmental expectations of interested parties.BS EN ISO 14063:
