With the booming of the global economy, we are facing the challenges presented by the ever growing environment degradation, that has seriously threatening our healthy and the sustainable development, and increasingly concerned by the whole human society. The needs of competition, laws and regulations, public expectations have made organizations of all kinds become more and more aware of the importance of their environmental performance and environmental image, and expect to have some systematic approach to rationalize their environmental management in order to assuredly meet the legislative requirements and their own environmental policy, to guarantee their well-being and development.ISO/TC 207, in June 1993, began to be engaged in International Standardization for environmental management. It is in this context that the ISO 14000 series of environmental management standards are created.
