Pollution Prevention & Remediation (PPR) Specialization Overview Leader: Trish Holden ;

PPR is about Now, and the Future  Legacy 80,000 synthetic chemicals and <3,000 tested for toxicity Contaminated soil, water, sediments, air Effects on biota, and ecosystems Foundational knowledge, paradigms and tools  characteristics governing pollutant transfer  waste treatment  remediation  Emerging New chemicals and materials (e.g. “nano”) New role of “green” mfr and industrial ecology Expanded concerns in legacy pollutants  synergies between pollutants  human effects  interactions (e.g. climate)

PPR Program Elements Definition Transport Distribution Toxicity/ Risk Remediation Prevention Decision-making

PPR Program Goals  Prepare you for careers in PPR Consulting Industry Government NGOs  Enable your long-term success Strong foundation + transferable knowledge Learn how to think about PPR-type problems Learn solutions and how to choose Reinforce MESM skills  communication  project management
