GB/T24050--2004/1So14050:2002 Introduction
This standard includes (B/T24000IS014000 Environmental Management Series International Relevant concepts and definitions in national standards. In the implementation and operation of environmental management systems, information communication is extremely important. Only with a common understanding of the terms used can effective communication be carried out.
Many environmental terms and their definitions are derived from concepts formed in recent years. The gradual evolution of these environmental concepts will inevitably lead to the continued development of environmental terms. The purpose of this standard is to relay the understanding of the terms used in the published standards of the GB/T24000 series of standards and the published technical reports of the ISO14000 series.
The terms and definitions in this standard are from the following environmental management standards (or technical reports): GB/I24001—1996 Environmental management systems, specifications and guidelines for use Environmental management system principles, general guidelines for systems and supporting technologies GB/T24004-1996

Appendix A gives the terms and definitions from the technical report IS0/TR14061:1998" to help forestry organizations apply the environmental management system standards IS014001 and IS014004. The development of environmental management standards by ISO/TC 207 is an ongoing process, including the development of new standards and the revision of existing standards. In addition, due to the need to coordinate with the work of ISO/TC 176, this standard will be reviewed in the future and corrected or revised as necessary. This standard does not define other concepts that may be encountered in the field of environmental management. However, in order to facilitate the use of the GB/124000-124000 series of environmental management standards, some of the concepts and their literature sources are given in Appendix B. Users should be aware that the application and summary of these concepts in the international environmental community are not the same. The listing of these concepts in Appendix B does not imply approval or recommendation of the understanding of these concepts. Environmental management GB/24050--2004/IS014050.2002 This standard contains the definitions of basic concepts related to environmental management that are used in the G13/T24000-IS0140G0 series of standards that have been issued and are used.
