Due to various government regulations and many other environmental related problems industries have to focus on these issues if they want to make business in the competitive market. Implementation and certification of Environmental Management System (EMS) is very important for industries as it will help to remove many environmental related issues and for sustainable development. Environmental related issues play different role in developed and developing countries. Developed countries have set up their own environmental standards and regulations which should be fulfilled by industries of other countries to have business with them. Regulatory pressure play important role to save environment but other factors like customer awareness, competitor’s pressure, societal pressure etc. are also important. Environmental issues related to automotive sectors need appropriate investigations in developing countries. Various drivers which create pressure on companies to adopt EMS practices are identified by extensive literature review which is the main objective of this paper. It includes providing a background on related concepts, literature review on various environment related issues and the concluding remarks for this review to save environment to some extent.
