This idea is known as the precautionary principle. In 1998, the Wingspread Conference on Implementing the Precautionary Principle was convened to discuss ways of incorporating the precautionary approach into environmental and public health decision making. Papers from the conference focus on the contexts under which the principle developed, its basis, and how it could be implemented.

Tickner is a research associate at Lowell Center for Sustainable Production at the University of Massachusetts. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
