| Abstract |
According to Pollution Prevention Progress in the Northeast, state and local government programs have helped thousands of companies throughout the Northeast save millions of dollars and reduce pollution. Sixteen state and local programs accomplished this with approximately one percent of the state environmental expenditures. In Massachusetts alone, the net savings reported by companies was more than $11 million. Pollution Prevention Progress in the Northeast examines in detail the pollution prevention activities of 16 state and local government agencies in the Northeast fiom 1990 through 1996. This is a first-of-its-kind report that documents, regionally, the activities and accomplishments of government-sponsored pollution prevention programs. This study documents good government in action at the state and local level. The primary conclusion of the report is that pollution prevention programs are succeeding in breaking down the old adage that environmental protection is incompatible with economic prosperity. Quite the contrary, through prevention businesses in the Northeast have strengthened their economic bottom lines while achieving environmental excellence. |
