Environmental Management is not, as the
name suggests, the management of the environment.
Rather, it is the management of our
interaction with and impact upon the environment. A
common view of environmental management involves the
concept of carrying capacity - the maximum number a
resource can sustain.
As with all management functions,
effective management tools, standards and systems are
required. Locally, some of these include
water
standards and
zoning and
flood plain regulations.
