| Summary |
"Beyond Compliance' traces the recent experiences of a selection of companies that have publicly stated a determination to move toward environmental excellence. It shows how new products, processes, and programs - in the front office, the plant, and the community at large - grew out of a combination of community, government, stockholder, employee, and market forces. It reviews how companies set environmental goals, how they allocate responsibility for meeting them, and how they measure their success. Contributors share stories of how they took their message to the public, which carrots and sticks worked and which didn't, and how they are building on both successes and failures to plan for the future. A few also tell of efforts at industry-wide reform. |
