The adoption of environmental strategies in large Colombian businesses

Abstract

This research explains the adoption of environmental strategies of large companies in Colombia. Large companies play an important role in global environmental issues, aimed at controlling climate change and resource scarcity.They are increasingly expected to address these environmental issues. However, companies adopt different strategies; some companies focus primarily on environmental compliance, while others implement new technologies and adopt proactive strategies such as eco-design, cleaner production and industrial symbiosis for waste recycling and shared resources in green systems design.
