Description

In Costing the Earth, this myth is debunked by Frances Cairncross, environment editor of The Economist. With great clarity, she chronicles how industries worldwide are changing the way they produce goods to meet the growing demands of a "green" economy. For example, Dow Chemical has formed a special by-products recycling team, & Danish pharmaceutical companies convert nitrogen waste to fertilizer for local farmers. Environmental foresight & innovation, Cairncross explains, can give a company the marketplace advantage by allowing it to spread R&D monies over time & set legislative standards that force competitors to catch up.
