| Abstract
|
:
|
"Waste, or garbage, is the manifestation of inefficiency. Therefore, by analyzing business garbage and tracing it back to its source, inefficiencies in process design and flow can be identified. This book approaches the specific problem of business garbage from a "Lean and green" perspective, connecting garbage reduction at all stages with lower operating expenses, higher productivity, and minimized landfill impact. It not only looks downstream at options for reusing, repurposing, and recycling, but also considers garbage in terms of transportation, inventory, and labor costs"--
