If there is anything that is stead fast and unchanging, it is change itself. Change is inevitable, and those organizations who do not keep up with change will become unstable, with long-term survivability in question.
There are things, events, or situations that occur that affect the way a business operates, either in a positive or negative way. These things, situations, or events that occur that affect a business in either a positive or negative way are called "driving forces or environmental factors or forces."
There are two kinds of driving forces; Internal driving forces, and external driving forces. Internal driving forces are those kinds of things, situations, or events that occur inside the business, and are generally under the control of the company. Examples might be as follows.
· organization of machinery and equipment,
· technological capacity,
· organizational culture,
· management systems,
· financial management
· employee morale.
External driving forces are those kinds of things, situation, or events that occur outside of the company and are by and large beyond the control of the company. Examples of external driving forces might be, the industry itself, the economy, Demographics, competition, political interference, etc.
Whether they are internal or external driving forces, one thing is certain for both. Change will occur! A company must be cognizant of these changes, flexible, and willing to respond to them in an appropriate way.
External driving forces can bury a business if not appropriately dealt with. The question is, how does a business know what changes are occurring so that they can deal with them in a positive way. OK, that's the next issue.
In order for a business to succeed and gain the competitive edge, the business must know what changes are indeed occurring, and what changes might be coming up in the future. I guess you might call this forecasting. Thus, critical to the business is what we call "informational resources." It is the collection and analyzation of data. Some examples of critical information might include the following:
The above are just some issues organizations must be on top of. Well it's never easy, but organizations that are successful include all of the above (and more), to develop the appropriate tactics, strategies, and best practices, to ensure successful out comes.
Environmental health studies focuses on the management of the environmental health issues and environmental science focuses on the management of the Environment.

Social issues significantly impact marketing strategies as they shape consumer perceptions and behaviors. Factors such as cultural diversity, social justice movements, and environmental concerns can influence brand reputation and customer loyalty. Companies must navigate these complexities by aligning their marketing efforts with social values and trends to resonate with their target audience effectively. Additionally, failing to address relevant social issues can lead to backlash and loss of consumer trust.

Environmental marketing, also known as green marketing, refers to the practice of promoting products or services based on their environmental benefits. It involves strategies that highlight sustainability, eco-friendliness, and social responsibility, appealing to consumers' growing awareness of environmental issues. Companies may focus on reducing their carbon footprint, using sustainable materials, or supporting ecological initiatives to differentiate themselves in the market. Ultimately, environmental marketing aims to align business practices with consumer values regarding environmental stewardship.

a wide answer
Environmental science is an interdisciplinary field that examines the relationships between humans and their environment. It encompasses subjects such as ecology, biology, chemistry, geology, and social sciences to address environmental issues like climate change, pollution, conservation, and sustainable resource management.
There are many social issues that affect the way companies handle their marketing campaigns. Nationality, education level, and economic status all play a major role in marketing. If a company is planning on marketing an expensive product, then they would do so in an area where the economic status is higher than most others.
