Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) and Product Stewardship play a significant role in bringing our consumption of natural resources and emission of greenhouse gases back into balance with the earth's ability to absorb these impacts. Perspectives on Product Stewardship provides an overview on managing products throughout their life cycles in order to conserve resources, decrease environmental impact, and share the burden of responsibility. It gives the reader a broad understanding of the origins and evolution of the rapidly expanding field of product stewardship and extended producer responsibility, while providing exemplary and precautionary case studies on paint, batteries, and packaging. Informative and timely, this reference will be useful to anyone engaged in, or embarking on, efforts to reduce impacts from consumer products, including producers, retailers, waste management professionals, recyclers, governments, environmental advocates, students, and the public.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 581g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 230 x 152 x 25 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781641433174\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Scott Cassel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":47482059260154,"sku":"9781641433174","price":71.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1751627044556_book.jpg?v=1751755801","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/perspectives-on-product-stewardship-9781641433174","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
