Protect our environment.
Product Stewardship is being responsible for the environmental impacts of a product - from the very beginning of the product, to its end.
The Minnesota Product Stewardship Council works to build capacity and knowledge among local governments and other stakeholders, to encourage producer responsibility for managing products through their entire life cycle, including but not limited to, products deemed hazardous at end-of-life. The MN PSC educates people on the benefits of producer responsibility for local and state government.
Why product stewardship?
Why product stewardship?
- When producers are involved in managing their products through end-of-life it can lead to better product design, better service to customers, less impact on the environment, and lower costs.
- Effective product stewardship programs reduce the generation of waste, increase recycling rates, and reduce government spending and involvement.
- Using private sector efficiencies helps reduce the overall cost of recycling while creating economic opportunities, including jobs.
Help us shape the future of product stewardship policy in the state of Minnesota.
