The Industrial Green Game: Implications for Environmental Design and Management

Waste management could increasingly become a subject for historians rather than economists as large companies reach their goals of zero waste by 2000.

NOTE

1.  

The measure of resource input per unit of use became popular in Europe as material inputs per service unit (MIPS) after the publication of a book by Professor Friedrich Schmidt-Bleek (1994).
