About this ebook
In Reducing Toxics, leading experts address industry, technology, health, and policy issues and explore the potential for pollution prevention at the industry and facility levels. They consider both the regulatory and institutional settings of toxics reduction initiatives, prescribe strategies for developing a prevention framework, and apply these principles in analyzing industry case studies. Among the topics considered are:
- the evolution of, and limits to, current environmental policy
- incorporating prevention into production planning and decisionmaking
- do voluntary programs lead to industry greening or greenwashing?
- case studies of the chemical, aerosols, radiator repair and electric vehicle industries
- opportunities for and barriers to pollution prevention
