What is Pollution Prevention?
Pollution Prevention (P2) focuses on reducing pollution at its source by preventing waste from being generated in the first place, rather than managing or disposing of it at the end of a process. Implementing P2 practices can create meaningful operational improvements while protecting the environment and communities they serve. We provide voluntary and confidential assistance to businesses in the automotive maintenance and manufacturing sectors. From identifying opportunities to supporting implementation, we strive to provide guidance throughout the entirety of participation to help businesses achieve lasting operational and environmental improvements.
Eco-Advantage Participants are leaders in their commitment to operational excellence, environmental stewardship, and community impact.

P2 Resources
A collaborative effort between The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and the University of Texas at Arlington, the Resource Exchange Network for Eliminating Waste (RENEW) is a free database network where users can exchange materials with other individuals and businesses who seek to sell excess materials, by-products, and waste. The intent of the network is to encourage the reduction of industrial waste by reusing and recycling materials.
