This is an attempt to answer the question of whether environmental excellence and employment is possible in Europe. The book examines if cleaner production processes lead to job cuts or if, by cutting raw materials, they reduce the pressure to shed jobs. It also aims to discover if markets for new products and services are leading to job creation. In addition, the text looks at the kind of market incentives and regulations which influence environmental action and employment. With employment and environmental damage both high on the political and social agenda, this issue is becoming increasingly important for business and industry, unions and interest groups, and for governments and policy makers in the areas of employment, environment and competition.
