A Simple Guide to Understand ISO 14001 in Shipping

12

ISO-14001

This story is about a nice guy called Jack.

Jack always understood his responsibilities towards the environment. He preferred bicycle over a car for small distance travel. He would get irritated if he saw someone print something that was unnecessary.

He was absolute environment-friendly in every sense.

Jack now owns a ship management company and he got a chance to showcase his services to a prestigious ship owner.

At the end of his presentation about his company, Jack thought to himself; “Well done boy”.

But jack was awestruck when the ship owners said; Sorry Jack, but we only work with companies that care for the environment.

No one care for the environment better than me and my company sir;  replied Jack with confidence.
