What is Concept of Waste Management

Today, climate change due to global warming, extraordinary deterioration in the natural environment, and the melting of glaciers seriously threaten human health and existence. Cases such as forest fires and flood disasters, which have been seen frequently in the summer months, and the COVID-19 pandemic due to the melting of glaciers, seriously threaten humanity. Within the scope of this study, the measures taken by the enterprises for the relationship between environmental responsibility and environmental sustainability were examined. In this direction, the 2020 environmental sustainability reports of 15 companies operating in different sectors in Turkey and listed on the Istanbul Stock Exchange were examined. The absence of a similar study in the literature increases the originality of the study. It is expected that the studies planned for the future will contribute positively to the literature by deepening it further (for example, in different countries, comparisons in different cultures, practical studies).
