Abstract

Amid the climate changes, the attention given to the environment is emerging and gaining importance.

The companies responded to this demand by adopting environmental practices, both in the sense of regulation, and differentiation and competitive advantage. This project aims to identify the degree of environmental management in established companies in the electronics sector State of Sao Paulo, ranking them among the evolutionary stages in accordance with the practices pro adopted in environmental management.
