| Abstract |
The concept of pollution prevention, or P2, is emblematic of a new, proactive environmental mindset that promises more sustainable industrial management. By targeting the causes, rather than the consequences, of polluting activity, P2 seeks to eliminate pollutants at their source and thereby avoid the need to treat or dispose of those pollutants later. This report presents case studies of P2-related decisions made at three different firms (Dow, Monsanto, and DuPont), all global chemical manufacturers headquartered in the United States. |
