Context and ISO 14001

Answer:

Independently of the economic sector I use as a basis the PESTEL framework. Having environment in mind defy your team to think if there are actual or foreseeable issues relevant about:

Politics;
Economic;
Social;
Technology;
Environmental;
Legislation.

For example; imagine the future impact of cars without drivers: cars will be less prone to accidents. Will car makers use less steal? Will car makers use plastic composites instead of metal? Less demand for steel? Less mining activity? Smaller steel manufacturing plants?
