(up to 1970s)
Treatment is the solution to pollution (1980s)
Prevention is the solution to pollution (1990s)
Producer responsibility is the solution to pollution (2000s)

Resource Efficiency
Making the most of available resources:
raw materials, water, energy, equipment, fixed assets
Thereby reducing waste and increasing profitability of industry & commerce
