NON-SPECIFIC CURRENT BELGIAN PROJECTS
-
This part of the activity programme of WWF-Belgium does not formally fit into the structural frame of the three biomes:
- 'Nature development outside reserves' : a field of activity which aims at recreating an ecological network in the most industrialized
and urbanized areas of Belgium:
- in the field of "Economics", WWF is currently developing a partnership with companies that wish to improve their environmental
management. WWF-Belgium has identified EMAS (Environmental Management Audit System) as the most likely tool to achieve
this and has consequently decided to support and promote it. This EU regulation (No.1836/93 - 29th June 1993) that recently came
into force is a voluntary system in which the applying company has to go through a complete process. This includes, among other
things, a preliminary environmental management assessment, a defined environmental programme for each production or
administration unit, and submission to an independent environmental audit cycle... By doing this the company is supposed to
gradually but effectively improve its environmental management in a way that does not abruptly affect its productivity.
