Book description
The business world is undergoing dramatic change that is driven by
tough new legislation, expanded market based incentives and increased
consumer awareness of environmental issues (e. g., hazard ingredients in
products, alternative energy, reduction in greenhouse gases). This is
forcing companies to reassess the life cycle of their products and the
efficiency of their supply chains. Environmental issues are becoming
business critical.

that gives progressive business leaders the strategic know-how to
pro-actively manage environmental issues and realize the business
