Abstract :
In many areas, the electronics industry has done well by its environmental responsibilities. But these and the related challenges of human health and worker safety are not static targets. New tools are constantly being created, market pressures felt, and scientific data produced. This paper argues that responding appropriately calls for continuous adaptation and change.
