Corporate Social Responsibility Event
5.30.2008 - 5.31.2008
3rd National Product Stewardship Forum
The Products Stewardship Institute (PSI) is convening our 3rd Annual
National Product Stewardship Forum in San Francisco on May 29-31, 2007.
PSI is the nations pre-eminent non-profit membership organization
promoting more responsible and sustainable product stewardship. By
forging partnerships with all participants involved in the lifecycle of a
product, PSI opens channels of communication that lead to sustainable
product stewardship systems.
During this two-day forum, policy makers, corporations, state and local
governments, and environmental organizations will be brought together in
an atmosphere designed for discussion and networking opportunities to
explore the major challenges and solutions for product stewardship today.
Join us to discuss the status of product stewardship, what role it can play
in shaping a better environmental future, and what we can learn from
product stewardship efforts by our colleagues in the U.S. and abroad.
Sessions will explore:
Various motivational forces for taking action on product stewardship
including shareholder resolutions, spiritual/ethical considerations,
and basic business aspects, including financial savings, reduced
regulation, customer loyalty, and competitive advantage.
Connections between chemicals policy and product stewardship.
International product stewardship programs from a corporate
responsibility perspective.
Issues involved in advancing a national or state/regional strategy on
pharmaceuticals, and overviews of key product stewardship initiatives on
electronics, paint, mercury thermostats, auto switches, phone books, and
compact fluorescent lamps.
The emergence of regional product stewardship council efforts in
California, the Midwest, and the Northeast, and the lessons they can learn
from existing networks.
Together we will collaborate with government, the private sector, and
others to find product stewardship solutions that reflect the concept of
shared responsibility.
