Editor's Notes
- Productivity SA is an organisation for South African businesses, industry and general public, that advises, implements programs, monitors solutions and evaluates progress in order to promote a more competitive South Africa.
- Finding ingenuous solutions that would reduce and eliminate the side effects such as pollution, contamination, waste, destruction, poisoning, or damage to the environment while looking at issues from both a human as well as a nature (earth) value perspective.
- Extracting resources / mineral / producing products pollution of environment (soil or water or air) reduced usefulness / more waste reduced size of available land and water reduced quality of life (of people and animals). E.g. Petrol leaking into water borehole e.g. In Arkansas, USA, oil spilled from oil boreholes. - Suburban homes surrounded by a flood of oil! Who can raise their kids in such an environment?!
- Today most people on earth use 2.2 times as much water and other resources as available, sometimes even using someone else's share! Today many people and businesses’ lifestyles are such that there will be resources only for a period of 32 years instead of a 70 years lifetime!
- Enables your enterprise to manage and improve your processes in a sustainable way such that your Carbon

- 1.9.6 What can we do as MBUs to reduce our enterprise's carbon footprint, contribution to global warming, the hole in the ozone layer…… Start measuring your enterprise's carbon footprint. Do projects to change your enterprise's carbon emitting lifestyle, / resources, to reduce your carbon footprint e.g. manufacturing processes The most important 'lifestyle changes' would be to change over to renewable sources of energy / electricity, (e.g. solar power, wind power, solar water heating, LED lighting); different means of transport for employees as well as transporting products. Measure carbon footprint monthly and capture input data on productivity charts (e.g. electricity consumption, petrol consumption, etc.) Do projects to change over from chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) in production or products to help 'heal' the hole in the ozone layer.

- 1.3.1.4 What can South African individuals and enterprises involved in coal mining do about coal mining related pollution and environment destruction? Here are a few suggestions: Research about rehabilitating the soil / environment. Repair / rehabilitate environmental damage. Research about countering acid and heavy metals pollution of the ground water and marsh areas caused by coal mining. Petition coal mining enterprises to deal with pollution and damage to the environment. Combine forces with organisations such as SASOL, to generate energy and oil / petrol / diesel via the same processes and sources (i.e. coal). Do research / experiment with renewable and 'clean' sources of energy generation for your factory, e.g. solar cells, solar water heating etc.
- 1.7.2 Deforestation in other parts of the world Rainforests once covered 14% of the earth's land surface; in 2011 they covered only 6% and experts estimate that the last remaining rainforests could be consumed in less than 40 years (i.e. by 2050)! Global deforestation sharply accelerated since 1852. Before then, there were about 15 million to 16 million km2 of rain forest. From 1947 to 2011, between 7.5 million and 8 million km2 of the Earth's mature tropical forests have been destroyed. Subsistence farming causes 48% of deforestation; commercial agriculture - 32%; logging - 14%; and fuel wood - 5%

- We would like all MBUs to understand the Basic 5R Principles of Green Productivity! It is one way of starting a Green Productivity Programme in your enterprise. Reduce = 1st R Reduce means reducing waste, by quality assurance in production processes. Reduce means reduce materials damage and waste, by training employees to understand characteristics of materials. Reduce means using less resources such as water, and energy at work. E.g. installing aerating shower heads in employee facilities to reduce water flow; e.g. change from oil bath welding plants to inverter welding plants. Reduce means reducing materials for products. E.g. Plastic 2-liter soft drink bottles. (weight of such bottles are 17 grams less than 30 years ago, keeping 114 million tons of plastic out of the waste stream. Reduce means reducing resources for packaging, e.g. using bubble wrap and corrugated carton, instead of crates from wood.

- Reuse = 2nd R Reuse means re-using something – e.g. returnable glass bottles such as coke empties in the old days! Reuse means repairing an item rather than throwing it out, usually cheaper than buying a new one! Reuse means donating old equipment or appliances to another section who can still use it when buying new ones.(E.g. yellow tagging as in the 5 S Toolkit) If nobody wants it inside the enterprise it can usually bring in some money by selling it outside. Reuse means looking for alternative uses when a product has served its purpose. E.g. a KZN company redesigned their water cooling process by reusing an old but still serviceable electrical motor from another function, and reusing a discarded water pump!
- 5R (cont’d) Recycle = 3rd R Recycling means that objects / materials that are considered waste can be turned back into raw materials to be used in the manufacture of other items. All metals, (copper, aluminium, steel, platinum, mercury, lead, etc.), can be recycled, as well as plastic, paper, rubber, electronics, glass, water, wood (e.g. even cork!)
- 5R (cont’d) Recycle = 3rd R Recycling consists of 4 Steps: Collection, sorting and cleaning. at the waste dump Or at a central collection facility e.g. Port Elizabeth church based homeless collectors Processing and turning recyclables into useful raw materials. E.g. paper turned into pulp, or plastics melted down and re-pelletized Manufacturing recycled materials into new products. 4. Consumers purchase recycled products. They participate in recycling waste, and look for products that contain recycled materials. Alert enterprises market their products as environmentally friendly when manufactured out of recycled materials.
- 5R (cont’d) Refuse = 4th R Refuse means that, out of concern for products' / processes' carbon footprint, or water, chemicals / poison footprint and concern for the well-being of people, an enterprise Refuses to include dangerous chemicals such as EDCs (Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals) or other poisonous stuff such as arsenic, mercury, or lead in their products.
- Redesign = 5th R Redesign is required when any of the other 4 Rs are applied. Reducing materials or Refuse to include dangerous materials involves Redesign of the product or process and equipment needed for manufacturing. Considering Reuse during Design, requires thinking about additional product features, e.g. drilling and tapping an extra hole for a handle when the product will be given to another user for another purpose; or e.g. adding a socket and computer chip for adjusting the speed of a piece of equipment for a new application, etc. Considering Recycling also leads to Redesign. E.g., car manufacturers mark different kinds of plastics of parts, to help recyclers 15 years down the line or when materials needs to be recycled from a smashed car.
- We would like your management team to be able to understand the “Natural Step framework” which outlines the system principles /conditions for rebuilding sustainability of human activities. Sustainability means preserving life on Earth, including human civilization. There are 4 Sustainability Principles. To become a sustainable enterprise and / or society we must... ….Eliminate / reduce our enterprise's contribution to the increasing build-up of substances extracted from the earth's crust; (i.e. carbon and water footprints; mine dumps; coal ash dumps, etc) 2. ….Eliminate / reduce our enterprise's contribution to the increasing build-up of chemicals and compounds produced by industry; (i.e. pollution, poisoning) 3. ….Eliminate / reduce our enterprise's contribution to the increasing physical degradation and destruction of nature and natural processes; (i.e. shortages, and environmental problems; clearing land; ) 4. ….Eliminate / reduce our enterprise's contribution to conditions that undermine people's capacity to meet their basic human needs. (i.e. poor working conditions, human fatigue, meaningless jobs, and lack of skills)
