Whereas the more `traditional'  environment policy mainly deals with individual emissions, waste and  substances, product policy is a more comprehensive approach addressing  the environmental impacts of products during their whole life cycle.  The study reviews the current state of affairs and the prospects for  product policy in the EU and Switzerland. It shows the relationship  with other areas of environmental policy and the potential role of new  instruments and approaches. Four case studies (on paint, batteries,  public procurement and eco-labelling) illustrate the barriers and  opportunities of product policy. \u003cbr\u003e  Environmental policy makers and policy analysts will find useful  information and recommendations in this book. It is also written for  those who have a professional interest in reducing the environmental  impact of products, including marketing managers, product developers,  procurement officers and staff members of environmental and consumer  organisations, standardisation and certification institutions, etc.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1996-06-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792340782\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-009-0277-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 240cm x160cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 306\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46312100888716,"sku":"9780792340782","price":125.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792340782.jpg?v=1771518429","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792340782","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
