Abstract
The Department of Defense (DoD) has long relied on “end-of -pipe” solutions to control and mitigate the effects of using environmentally harmful materials and processes. Pollution prevention, which addresses the reduction of pollution at the source, provides a more efficient and effective means for DoD to protect the environment. Pollution prevention options include conservation of energy, water and other natural resources; elimination or reduced use of hazardous materials; and pollutant reduction and recycling techniques. Implementation of pollution prevention programs has been effective in supporting a primary mainstay of DoD’s function, i.e., deterrence, by enhancing operational readiness, quality of life, and weapon system modernization goals.
