| Tiivistelmä: | Environmental regulation of industrial activity is generally believed to have a negative impact on the industry. Recent research has suggested, however, that reducing industrial waste outputs can, in certain circumstances, result in "win-win", or at least "win-draw", scenario for industry and the environment. This article investigates the viability of using the abatement cost curve method as a management tool to enable the achievement of a "win-win" state. A case study concerning copper pollution in the Humber Estuary is used, and the abatement cost curve methodology proves to be a valuable tool in identifying barriers to achieving the "win-win" state, and also in providing future direction for the waste management strategy. |
