Public enemies, private collaborators
Article Abstract:
A two-year project alliance between Dow Chemical Co. and environmental groups to reduce toxic chemical production has served as a model for such alliances. By the project's end on April 30, 1999, Dow was on track to cut production by 37% of listed toxic chemicals and to reduce by 43% the release of chemicals to the air and water, both above the 35% goals. The savings to Dow's waste treatment plan alone totalled $3.3 million annually.
