TOOLS & METHODS
Many
types of
sustainability
tools and methods are available today. Here you can find short descriptions of
various types of sustainability tools divided into four groups based on their
applications. The aim is however not to be a "school book" in
sustainability tools since many such books are already available. Additionally
you can under the subheading "Software" find various types of useful
software tools, some of them accessible directly from this site. The tools are
divided into the following groups:
-
Management
tools, like ISO 14001 and EMAS.
-
Assessment
tools, like Life Cycle Assessment (LCA).
-
Communication
tools, like Environmental Product Declarations (EPD).
-
Other
info, like legislation and standards.
Information
about how and when to use the tools can be found under the heading Strategies.
Experiences and
results from the use of the tools can be found under Publications.
A guide with relevant
questions to be asked when selecting a method or tool can be found
here.
