Abstract
Companies can contribute to improving quality of life through their products and services, and also through operating in an environmentally and socially responsible way, i.e. both through what they do and how they do it. In other words, by providing “sustainable” products and services that bring improved quality of life while reducing social and environmental burdens. This article presents the results of a case study conducted by Procter & Gamble showing the environmental improvements in the manufacture and use of laundry detergents during the last decade.
