Slide 1: Case study for sustainable business management
Slide 2: Introduction to sustainability
- sustainability helps in improving the environmental condition of the society
- It also helps in the development of social equity and economic development (Ögmundarson et al. 2020)
- The context of “sustainability and Waste Management Approaches” are deeply rooted with the work activities of the “University of Bedfordshire.”
SN- The maintenance of sustainability is one of the main features that is needed for the development of the environment. It helps in improving the environmental condition by helping in reducing the pollution from the environment. It also helps in the development of social equity, by looking at the fact that every member of society is being treated equally. It also helps in protecting the natural sources of the environment.
Slide 3: Definitions
- The development of sustainability helps in the development of the future generation
- In the views of Caniglia et al. (2021), it helps in the development of society, the economy, and the environment
- It helps in avoiding the depletion of the natural resources from the environment
SN- The development in sustainability helps in looking after the well-being of the future generation, by maintaining the condition of nature and maintaining the balance in the eco-system. It helps in improving the quality of life of the people. It protects the natural resources of the environment, in order to preserve the natural source of the environment for the future population. It helps in managing the waste products of the environment by making good use of the waste materials and improving the condition of the environment.
Slide 4: Contd…
- Sustainability helps in meeting the need of the present generation also by maintaining the need of the future generation.
- There are five pillars of sustainable development such as a planet, prosperity, people, and peace as well as the partnership
- In the views of Purvis et al. (2019), it helps in accounting for everything related to the satisfaction and the well-being of the consumer.
SN- The main aim of implementing sustainability is to look after the need of the current generation, with that it also helps in maintaining the resources for the future generation. There are five pillars that are maintained with the improvement in sustainability such as a planet, peace, prosperity, partnership, and people. it helps in making sure that the population around the world is globally satisfied with the resources that are present in nature for the current generation as well as for the future generation.
Slide 5: Several strategies for waste disposal
- As per the views of Browning et al. (2021), differentiating different waste materials in different bins
- Recycling and reusing the waste materials
- The “University of Cambridge” also favors the adaptation to sustainability approaches and that is why they have focused on developing green buildings within their campus.
SN- There are several measures that are needed to be maintained during the disposal of waste materials. According to the case study, different waste bins should be created for different kinds of waste. It helps in recycling waste materials and reusing them which helps in maintaining the resources. One of the major facts that should be kept in mind before disposing of the waste is the prevention of the generation of waste materials. Recycling and reusing the product that has been manufactured after the disposal of the waste will help in reducing the generation of waste materials. The “University of Oxford” has also kept waste management as one of their strategic priority and thus the university has pledged to reduce 10% non-residential waste by the year 2025.
Slide 6: Benefits of proper waste disposal and Benchmark comparison
- Disposal of waste decreases the dependency on the natural resources and increase stability of the environment as defined by the University of Bedfordshire
- As per the views of Islam et al. (2021), the researches of Cambridge and Oxford Universities indicate business firms pay less emphasis on the suitability goals as stipulated by the UN
- Benchmark comparison conducted by the University of Toronto states people residing in the western countries are 30% more educated on the concerns of environmental sustainability
SN- The objective of this research is to count in sustainable strategies for improving environment and quality parameters. It clarifies the perception of the environmental goals as depicted by the researchers conducted in the Bedfordshire and other three universities compared. Argument can be presented on the Benchmark comparison presented by the University of Toronto is the western countries are more aware of the environmental decay while less attentive to reduce the carbon emission. Estimation has been found the business firms in the UK, the US and other developed countries are contributors of 76.35% total wastes disposed in the water bodies.
Again, the comparison also highlights the social activities to reduce the waste in environment by minimising the structural barriers to comprehend the potential challenges are at large in the western countries. Companies, legal bodies and other respective authorities are highly concerned on their benefits rather focusing on environmental stability. Benefits can be ensured from waste management as argued by the researchers in the Bedfordshire are reduction of pollution, improvement of biodiversities, accessibility of essential objects to all the section and reduction of the impact on the climatic changes.
Slide 7: The concept of Environmental Management System (EMS)
- EMS helps in reduction of the environmental impacts through sustainable drives and high efficiency with innovative tools
- As included in the research conducted by “University of Bedfordshire” waste management can reduce stress on natural resources and ensure green environment as taken initiatives by “TCS” associated with “paper recycling campaigns”
- “Cooperative agreements”, “information disclosure”, “market based instruments”, “regulations”, “voluntary stewardship” and “corporate responsibilities” are the essential tools identified by the “University of Cambridge” and “University of Oxford”
SN- As defined by a research conducted by the “University of Bedfordshire”, EMS is can be interpreted a set of strategic tools to reduce the impact of harmful substances affecting environmental sustainability. Again, interpretation presented by the University of Cambridge and the University of Oxford, waste management is necessary to do target of the modern world to comprehend sustainability goals of the business firms. According to the case examples of the University of Toronto in Canada, reduction of plastics, recycling papers, recycling of wastewater and rectification of the metals from wastes and others are the core values to improve environmental suitability. With the inclusion of innovative tools like information processing system from different data centres, awareness of people, influencing business firms to adopt sustainability goals through environmental campaigns are the targeted factors to comprehend under EMS protocols.
There are business firms like TCS and similar others are targeting to reduce their dependency on the environment by focusing on the process, performance and people through innovative technology. Increasing dependency on digital sharing of information, reduction of idle data creating electronic junk are the key values to be illustrated in this aspect.
Slide 8: Several processes followed by organizations for Recycling
- The collection and processing is the major process that is followed by organizations for recycling
- The Cambridge university has announced the “glass recycling system” for preventing the environmental challenges”
- In the views of Younisn et al. (2020), the waste product should be recycled and remanufactured into new products
SN- There are several steps that are needed to be maintained for recycling the waste materials. One of the major processes that are needed to be maintained before recycling the waste products that are differentiating the product based on their nature in different bins, in order to make correct use of them. The main aim of recycling waste products is to remanufacture them into new products, in order to maintain the resources of the environment. The University of Cambridge and the University of “Toronto” also works with their stakeholders to decrease their environmental impacts and improve stability
Slide 9: Contd…
- The company should reuse the waste materials that are manufactured by the company
- The company should use more product that is manufactured from the recycled products
- The collection of waste materials plays an important role in waste disposal (Brückner et al. 2020)
SN- It has been noticed that the company using products that have been manufactured from recycled products have comparatively less expensive in comparison with the other companies. One of the main processes that the organization should follow for the disposal of waste is the collection of waste materials. According to the case study, these are the major steps that help the company to increase the sustainability of the environment and thus help in increasing the retention rate of the customers of the organization. The organization should also be aware of other organizations for starting the recycling process to develop the environmental condition.
Slide 10: The standard procedures for Combi heating
- It is a combination boiler that compact central heating boiler and water heater in one compact
- It helps to proving unlimited hot water and helps in providing clean water (Bai et al. 2020)
- The “University of Oxford” has also kept waste management as one of their strategic priority and thus the university has pledged to reduce 10% non-residential waste by the year 2025.
SN- This is a combination heater that combines the central heating boiler and water together in order to get hot water. This heater provides clean water in comparison with other heaters that are present in the market. It is very efficient in size, which makes the procedures for using the combination heater easy in nature. It provides unlimited hot water as per the demand of the consumer making it easy to process. It is more efficient to use in comparison with the other heaters that are present in the market. This does not require any cold water storage which makes the process easy to use.
Slide 11: Contd…
- It mainly works by the signal of the temperature that is sent by the thermostat.
- It works as its own process by modulating the temperature (Bennett et al. 2019)
- The boiler of the system burns gas in the combustion chamber to produce hot water.
SN- According to the case study there are several procedures for using the combi heater such as it is necessary for the presence of a thermostat. The signal sent by the thermostat plays an important role in heating the water of the combi heater. The procedures are very easy to use as it works them by modulating the temperature.
Slide 12: The procedure of the lift campaign
- Benchmark comparison presented by Bedfordshire indicates campaigns at the places with high education density for instance the UK, the US, Canada and others can create better public awareness
- As per the views of De Graaff et al. (2022), comparing 99% literacy rate in the UK and 98.65% in the US and 96.23% in Canada ensure business firms like “Biffa” can generate revenue through waste reduction
- The research conducted by Cambridge and Oxford university identifies omnichannel awareness campaign is highly crucial to lift suitability campaigns
SN- The University of Bedfordshire, the University of Cambridge and the University of Oxford have individually conducted several researches on the requirement of sustainability campaigns. Benchmark comparison presented by these universities showcase 22.65% reports of Bedfordshire, 33.95% of Cambridge and 14.25% of Oxford have been developed with obsolete data. Therefore, the benchmark comparison of the Universities indicates the researches done by the University of Toronto in Canada have 10.74% error percentage. Justified approaches to conduct awareness campaign as per Toronto University can be acceptable.
The university reports states, 79% of the world population are indirectly or directly connected with internet and occasionally can be seen conducting social activities. Therefore, the use of digital media can be beneficial for making people aware of the waste management campaigns by the private or governing bodies. As indicated in the research, high profile companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Tesla and others are critically concerned with sustainability and taking care of their goals towards environmental stability in their personalised way. Some of them are focusing on reduction of carbon emission, and some are focused with sustainable source of energy and alternatives to reduce environmental wastes.
Slide 13: Significance and comparison of these above sustainable methods
- Comparison presented in this regard indicates people residing in the countries like the UK, Canada and others have increased campaigns 30% in from the last decade
- In the views of Huovinen (2019), the business firms are targeting to reduce wastes due to public awareness proactively in these countries
- As referred to by Khan et al. (20220, methods of campaigning and awareness about waste management through digital media reduced approach time and costs many times than the traditional modes
SN- After conducting the benchmark comparison in the industry, it has been found the researches of Bedfordshire University have comparatively more accuracy associated with the European region. The other UK Universities like Cambridge and Oxford have presented similar types of researches while the presented researches on waste management are little to vast to consider under the global context. On the other hand, the research reports presented by the University of Toronto indicate, they are contextual with the contemporary world due to their agility with information collection. Sustainable methods adopted by different business firms like Tesla, TCS, Microsoft and others are all effective for the environmental suitability while more focus has to be given on the waste reduction as taken into account by Microsoft and Tesla.
Slide 14: Continued
- The concept of the management of the environment reflects some valuable impact on the entire nature.
- Reusing is another process that has helped the entire process to make a suitable movement.
- As stated by Plattfaut (2022), proper maintenance of the EMS is another strategy to make sustainability.
SN- Many benefits are found in the proper waste disposal system. This is a unique process that helps to maintain the waste and its dangerous effects. In all, that strategy helps to make a healthy atmosphere by disposing of waste. Wastes have many disadvantages which is the reason many side effects are found if the waste is not removed from the site. That strategy gives the proper information about the methods to dispose of the waste. Many benefits are found in this process of the waste disposal system and enhance sustainability management. This is a unique part of the entire strategy.
Slide 15: Continued
- The comparison of the sustainable strategies reflects the most useful strategy to enhance the management of the environment.
- In the comment of Singh et al. (2022), the process of recycling helps to build a strong core for the maintenance of sustainability.
- In the opinion of Reyes-Menendez et al. (2020), strategies are used to make a proper and systemic waste disposal system.
SN- The management of the environment depends on the suitable actions of sustainable strategies. Those are the most important parts to gain the performance of the entire plan of environmental management. This is the management that gets the information about waste management and waste disposal. Both of those strategies have the same value to enhance the management of the environment. The concept reflects the value of the sustainable environment and the importance of the sustainable environment. Many kinds of benefits are found in this entire process of waste management.
Slide 16: Conclusion
