Environmental Sustainability
Environmental Sustainability is a way to meet society's needs for products and services with progressively less negative impact on the world we live in. Reusing materials, reducing the amount of raw materials consumed and recycling materials when possible makes sense both for the environment and business. Efficient use of materials not only reduces the waste added to the air, water and landfills, but adds value to the production process by reducing costs.
