TAILIEUCHUNG - Nanotechnology and the Environment

In a similar way, environmental considerations are frequently viewed as barriers to profitability. They are viewed as necessary evils, costs to be minimized, or regulations with which to comply. The environment is rarely considered central to business strategy unless there is some regulation that constrains business goals, a mess to clean up, or a public issue which pits executives against environmentalists. Historically, business people neither have been encouraged nor discouraged to get involved with environmental concerns. Models and theories of business traditionally have been silent on the subject of the environment. Silence, however, is no longer an option in the. | Nanotechnology and the Environment Report of the National Nanotechnology Initiative Workshop May 8-9 2003 About the Nanoscale Science Engineering and Technology Subcommittee The Nanoscale Science Engineering and Technology NSET Subcommittee is the interagency body responsible for coordinating planning implementing and reviewing the National Nanotechnology Initiative. NSET is a subcommittee of the National Science and Technology Council NSTC which is one of the principal means by which the President coordinates science space and technology policies across the Federal Government. The National Nanotechnology Coordination Office NNCO provides technical and administrative support to the NSET Subcommittee and supports the subcommittee in the preparation of multiagency planning budget and assessment documents including this report. For more information on NSET see http html about . For more information on NSTC see http nstc . For more information on the NNI NSET and NNCO see http . About this document This document is the report of a workshop held under NSET auspices in May 2003 seeking input from the research community on the NNI research agenda exploring how nanotechnology research can be used to protect manage and improve the environment and how potential harm from nanotechnology can be anticipated and prevented. It was originally intended to address the NNI research agenda related to one of the original NNI grand challenge topics Nanoscale Processes for Environmental Improvement. In addition the workshop addressed issues concerning the possible environment health and safety EHS implications of engineered nanomaterials. It was used as input for the NNI Strategic Plan released in December 2004. The meeting was organized by an interagency group led by the . Environmental Protection Agency and sponsored through NNCO by the other member agencies of the NSET Subcommittee. Cover and book design Book design and layout
