Abstract

The environmental risk of an enterprise refers to the impact on the environment and possibility of accidents. In recent decades, the emerging industrial economies represented by BRICS countries have developed rapidly, which has inevitably led to increased pollution and deterioration of environmental quality in these countries. This chapter describes China, which has the fastest economic development among BRICS countries, as an example, and summarizes some evaluation and performance indicators of corporate environmental risk management, so as to facilitate the construction of a scientific and reasonable evaluation indicator system in our further research. The concluding paragraph briefly introduces several measures to reduce the environmental risks of industrial enterprises.

Highlights

  • The green development of an enterprise is of great significance for sustainable development, and the environmental risk of an enterprise is the key problem of green development

  • This article describes China, which has the fastest economic growth and the highest pollution rate among BRICS countries. It has to introduce the concepts of industrial enterprise environmental risk, enterprise environmental management, and enterprise environmental regulation [Jingshuai, 2020; Yanxia, 2020]

  • Li Qiang and Nie Rui [Qiang, Rui, 2009] conducted an empirical study of the relationships between environmental risk management and technological progress, and found out that environmental risk management has a significant positive effect on the number of utility model patents developed by industrial enterprises

Summary

Introduction

The green development of an enterprise is of great significance for sustainable development, and the environmental risk of an enterprise is the key problem of green development. China’s total environmental protection investment is continuously increasing, and its share of GDP has gradually stabilized by about 1.4%. Judging from the current international experience, environmental protection investment accounted for 1-1.5% of the country (region)’s total economy that year, indicating that the country (region) was only at the stage of basic control of environmental pollution. It can be seen that the scale of China’s environmental protection investments still needs further expansion. This article describes China, which has the fastest economic growth and the highest pollution rate among BRICS countries. As an example, it has to introduce the concepts of industrial enterprise environmental risk, enterprise environmental management, and enterprise environmental regulation [Jingshuai, 2020; Yanxia, 2020]
