Romm, Director of the non-profit Center for Energy & Climate Solutions, describes the experiences of such successful companies as DuPont, 3M, Compaq, Xerox, Toyota, Verifone and Perkin-Elmer. In all, he shows how more than 50 firms have achieved bottom-line improvements by improving processes, increasing energy efficiency and adopting new technologies.
