    Protecting the company from environmental threats is one of the most pressing problems facing the manager today. No longer can maximizing profits be the only or even the major concern of management. Currently, the manager faces pressures from the government, which passes new laws regulating the emissions from the company’s plants and its products, from the environmentalist who both harass and sue the company and from its customers who are demanding environmentally safe products. The impact of the environment affects everything the manager does. The manager must consider the environment when deciding on new plant sites, suppliers selection, product performance, waste disposal, and shipping of the product.
    This paper looks at the currently known environmental problems including air pollution, water pollution, toxic waste, acid rain, stratospheric ozone depletion and the greenhouse effect and their effects on management’s decision making. However, this paper deals with management strategy to survive and prosper in these environmentally conscious times. It’s not a paper on environmental law.
