Samsung is 100% correct. Here's an example:

A past employer used barrels that had a residue of dried shoe glue on the bottom. The glue was inert in its dried state, and posed no health risks (unless a person ate it in quantity). However, the glue had been made with diisocyanates that would produce a potentially lethal cyanide gas when burning. When I pointed this out we started using clean barrels.

Aside from lead content in components and boards I would suggest looking up the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for chemicals like resin, flux, thinner and so on. The MSDS can give guidance as to the aspect's environmental impact based on the theory that what is bad for human life is also bad for the environment humans live in.

A "quick and dirty" help source is NFPA 704 which is a chemical hazard symbol. Its diamond shape lists the basic type of hazard (fire, health, instability and "special") and the degree of hazard, 0 being least and 4 being greatest.

Thanks for the suggestion. I am going through the MSDS. Will come back again in case of difficulties. :)

minrah,

Risk assessment is a team sport. You should not be doing it alone. Involve your colleagues from across your organization.

Environmental Aspect - Element of an organization's activities, products or services that can interact with the environment.

Environmental Impact - Any change to the environment, whether adverse or beneficial, wholly or partially resulting from an organization's activities, products or services.

One of our activities is to fly to client sites using established airlines. The environmental aspects of this are emissions of pollutants to the environment. The impact is addition of greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere. There is very little we can do about this so our impact on the environment in relation to flying is zero, is that line of thinking right?

Pretty much

If you're doing GHG then it's an indirect generation of CO2e
