Development of Methods for Measuring Environmental Performance of Companies
and their Practical Application to the Industry
－For the Benefit of Ecologically Conscious Management－
Coordinator: Nobuyuki Miyazaki
Today, companies play a very important role in realizing ecological and peaceful societies, in which they are expected to carry out economic activities based on not only economic principles but also ecological necessities, thus making the “environmental consciousness” one of the most important concepts for them.
The main focus of this study is placed on the survey of rational measures
to evaluate the environmental performance of companies and the development
of important theories and methods as well as some basic evaluation tools
easily practicable in the near future. This study will place great importance
on the JEPIX (Japan Environmental Policy Priorities Index) which Japan Science and
Technology Inc. (JST), the Sustainable Management Forum, and the Sustainable
Management Rating Institute have so far been developing. By refining and
promoting this Index methodology, we will compile many benchmark studies
of leading Japanese companies.
