In May 2006, the nanotechnology consultancy firm Lux Research published a report entitled ‘‘Taking action on nanotech environmental, safety and health risks’’ (Lux Research, 2006). The report addressed the potential impact of real and perceived risks on nano-businesses from a commercial perspective, and concluded that ‘‘One of the biggest challenges facing firms commercializing nanotechnology innovations today is managing environmental, health and safety (EHS) risks)’’. At the root of this challenge is uncertainty – including lack of information on real risks, poorly-determined perceptual risks and hesitancy over nanotechnology oversight | Andrew D. Maynard David Y.
