Indeed, evidence suggests that Natural Resources Wales has a valuable role to play, encouraging systematic incorporation of environmental perspectives into many aspects of an organisation’s overall operation, helping to trigger new awareness and new priorities in policies and practices.
What is an Environmental Audit?
Environmental auditing is a systematic, documented, periodic and objective process in assessing an organisation’s activities and services in relation to:
- Assessing relevant statutory and internal requirements
- Facilitating understanding of good environmental practices
- Promoting good environmental management
- Maintaining credibility with the public/clients
- Raising staff awareness and commitment to the environmental policy
- Exploring improvement opportunities

The review covers four key areas:
