Environmental management and development, ecosystem, pollution
Environmental management has played significant roles in the protection and regulation of the ecosystem. Changes in the climate and survival habitats have led to increased talks by international management organizations to intensify their role in environmental protection. Increased levels of industrialization and the lack of interest in environment protection programs have resulted to an environmental depravity (Morel and Igor 180). Lack of public consciousness on the role of environmental management has contributed to a society that does not care about the future generation. Profit driven industries have not adopted environmental protection strategies hence contributing to most of the air and water pollution's.
Most of the pollution cases happen with the knowledge of the public. However, there are fewer numbers of environmentalists, who have the duty to cause public awareness on both the long-term and short-term impacts of pollution. Public apathy has also led to the increased cases of pollution and environmental degradation (Morel and Igor 177). Most of the individuals lack interest in the contributing to the conservation of the ecosystem. Research has proved that most of the individuals do not take part in the fight against pollution by industries. As a result, they depend on the bodies to erect laws,order and policies that will assist in environmental management. In some countries, legal systems are corrupt leading to the pollution.
[...] They rely on charity organizations and donor funds to finance their activities. Conclusion Environmental management has served various roles despite the regulatory compliances. It has continued protecting the environment from natural and manmade pollution systems (Barrow 15). The fight for competitive advantages by firms has caused a barrier for implementation of environmental policies (Hitchens 246). Changing political and economic trends have altered some of the roles of environmental management. Works Cited & Bibliography Barrow, Christopher J . Environmental management and development.

[...] It has been used a strategy in environmental management. Changes in trends in the environmental sector have contributed to public concern where individuals have catalyzed different reform processes that help in conservation. Public apathy has been caused by lack of knowledge on the impacts of environmental pollution. In the area where there are high levels of literacy, the public has contributed in the fight against pollution. A public with little interest in climate changes is unlikely going to contribute in the formation of laws that deal with the problems. [...]
[...] It is most evident in areas with faulty legal systems. Oil production and transportation companies find it too expensive in the case of oil spills in the oceans. Consequently, the water pollution leads to the death of marine life. Environmental management organizations find it difficult to use force because some of the oil companies are owned by donors and powerful politicians. Companies are using any available strategies to increase their competitive advantage in the markets (Hitchens 244). Some are producing products that have dangerous long-lasting effects on the environment. [...]
[...] Regulatory compliance to continual improvement Environmental management has faced various problems with the changing societal trends. One of the main obstacles is the compliance of the set policies by industries and other environmental projects. The provision of limits by international organizations is part of its success (Koontz 35). However, to implement the policies has become a major task due to the differences in leaders and legal systems. Some countries do not observe the regulatory bodies and continue polluting the habitats through industries and household wastes. [...]
