The P2Policy list server, administered by the National Pollution Prevention Roundtable office and funded by the EPA's Pollution Prevention Division, provides a discussion forum on pollution prevention policy and legislative developments. Subscribers query and comment on topics related to pollution prevention policy development, regulatory integration issues and legislation. The OPPT in Washington, D.C, sponsors two e-mail listservers managed by the Illinois Waste Management and Research Center. P2Tech is a listserver dedicated to the free discussion of technical strategies for implementing pollution prevention.
Subscribers post questions or responses to questions using any e-mail software.
The questions or responses are then automatically distributed to all subscribers via e-mail. Currently P2Tech has about 375 subscribers from eleven countries. Over the last six months discussion subjects have included P2 material for college courses, reduction of pickling plant effluents, Greenstar programs, dry cleaning with carbon dioxide, and many other subjects. The goal of the P2Trainer list server, also administered by NPPR's office, is to encourage the exchange of information about current pollution prevention educational programs and training opportunities. Discussions can be about any educational or training topic related to cleaner technologies and production.
