Environmental certification is a process that verifies a product, service, or organization meets specific environmental standards. These standards often focus on sustainability, energy efficiency, and reduced environmental impact. Certifications can be awarded by various organizations and may cover areas such as green building, sustainable agriculture, or eco-friendly products. Obtaining environmental certification can help businesses demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and attract environmentally conscious consumers. It can also lead to improved operational efficiency and potential cost savings. Common certifications include LEED for buildings and ISO 14001 for environmental management systems.
