INTRODUCTION
The term sustainable business management is a way in which it is realized by the
business firms and other constituents of the environment as to which all resources are limited and
valuable for the time being and what measures can be undertaken to formally preserve them. To
maintain the sustainability of the environment it is essential that the operational activities should
be in alignment with the resources available and that these should not be destroyed by the
harmful man-made frameworks.
The following report is being prepared on the sustainable aspects and factors of Amazon,
how does the company achieve sustainability in their overall business operations by providing an
overview of waste hierarchy and key sustainable challenges that are imposed by its external
factors and how does Amazon deal with it.
MAIN BODY
Explaining waste hierarchy in delivering sustainability by using Waste Hierarchy Framework:
The waste management hierarchy follows the concept and structure of eliminating the
need of waste in the business operations as well as by the personal activities that could harm the
environment in any of the ways (de Oliveira. and et.al., 2021). If this has to be seen in an
objective and a shortened way, then it can be referred to as Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. This
concept is quite recognized and is an effective measure to control the waste management and
support sustainability across the globe. Also, the rapid advancement of technologies in handling
the waste hierarchy has helped the business operators and others to understand the need of
protecting and enhancing the natural environment for economic and social development. The
main motive behind applying such an approach is to evaluate what kind of relation do humans
have with the top priorities of the environment and its sustainable factors (Reyes-Menendez. and
et.al., 2020). In order to experience a flourishing nature and contribute towards the health and
well-being of people, increasing the economic stability, it is important to form an effective waste
management strategy that can be optimized through various measures and steps undertaken by
the specialists.
