Developed by a plant manager who experienced the challenges to going green, Green Intentions shows how the green value stream provides a dynamic approach to making green improvements. It defines each of the seven green wastes, explains the overall green value stream process, demonstrates how to map your green value stream, and provides guidance on implementation. Its practical approach shows how to realize initial savings from green initiatives so as to gain the support and momentum needed to eliminate all green wastes, leading to environmental sustainability as well as substantial business benefits, including new customers, improved employee retention, and increased revenues.
