Environmental Management Systems

bronze award
MMU have successfully achieved the EcoCampus Bronze Award for the phased implementation of an Environmental Management System.

Environmental Management Systems (EMS) provide a structured framework for managing environmental impacts, typically those from waste, energy use, transport and consumption of resources. Implementing an EMS significantly reduces the risk of non-compliance with environmental legislation through changes in management and operational practices.

MMU take part in EcoCampus, an award scheme for the phased implementation of an Environmental Management System. We’ve achieved the Bronze Award so far. Once we achieve a Gold Standard, this is equivalent to ISO 14001, which is an internationally recognised EMS standard.
