Fact Sheet 106.pmd
Many of the basic concepts of green chemistry are familiar to pollution prevention practitioners. The concepts of substituting less hazardous materials into chemical formulations and reducing wastes have been around for many years. Green chemistry has taken these concepts and expanded the scope of possibilities by fully evaluating all aspects of chemical reactions, processes and formulations. T...
متن کاملIntra-firm diffusion of pollution prevention technology: the role of organizational structure
This paper empirically examines the extent to which organization characteristics promote the diffusion of pollution prevention technologies within a firm (parent company). We use panel data on more than 5000 facilities reporting to the Toxics Release Inventory over the period of 1991 to 2011 to examine the number of pollution prevention technologies adopted by a facility with respect to its siz...
متن کاملThe concordance of pollution prevention and occupational health and safety: a perspective on U.S. policy.
BACKGROUND Occupational health and pollution prevention, although conceptually linked by the common goals of preventing exposure to toxic materials and lowering risk functions, have been largely confined to separate patterns of practice and professional development. Some analysts see this as a missed opportunity for synergy and raising the level of protection afforded to both the worker and the...
متن کاملIssues in Facility-Level Pollution Prevention Measurement
Issues in developing measures of pollution prevention at the process-level and facility-level are reviewed, based on existing literature. Pollution prevention can be measured based on changes in waste or changes in materials use. The measurement can be further be adjusted to account for changes in production or may be left as an absolute measure, but choosing an accurate index may be difficult....
متن کاملAir Pollution Exposure Assessment for Epidemiologic Studies of Pregnant Women and Children: Lessons Learned from the Centers for Children’s Environmental Health and Disease Prevention Research
The National Children's Study is considering a wide spectrum of airborne pollutants that are hypothesized to potentially influence pregnancy outcomes, neurodevelopment, asthma, atopy, immune development, obesity, and pubertal development. In this article we summarize six applicable exposure assessment lessons learned from the Centers for Children's Environmental Health and Disease Prevention Re...
