Ecolabels. The Industrialization of Environmental Standards.
West, Karen
Ecologist, v25 n1 p16-20 Jan-Feb 1995
Examines the use of ecolabels, or seals of approval given to manufactured products deemed to have fewer impacts on the environment than functionally and competitively similar products. Discusses the effects of voluntary labeling schemes rather than mandatory controls and argues that voluntary labeling results in industry-set standards. (LZ)
