The EPA encourages and promotes waste reduction programs for businesses and communities. Waste reduction not only makes good environmental sense--it also makes good business sense. Reduced waste generation can save money through reduced purchasing and waste disposal costs. Through WasteWise and other initiatives, the EPA provides free technical assistance to help organizations develop, implement, and measure waste reduction activities. The Agency also offers publicity to successful organizations through its publications, case studies, and national and regional events.
