Abstract

Environmental risks to humans are not new – history is replete with examples of societies that collapsed alongside ecosystem change (Diamond, 2005). We know that numerous societies have suffered because of environmental pollution from organizational operations (King & Lenox, 2000; Maguire & Hardy, 2009, Maguire & Hardy, 2013) and from industrial accidents (Gephart, 1984: Tsoukas, 1999).
