Toxic 100 & company responses - 2008

In April 2008, the Political Economy Research Institute (PERI) of the University of Massachusetts issued its second "Toxic 100" list identifying, according to PERI, "the top U.S. air polluters among the world's largest corporations. The index relies on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Risk Screening Environmental Indicators (RSEI) project. The starting point for the RSEI is the EPA’s Toxics Release Inventory (TRI), which reports on releases of toxic chemicals at facilities across the United States."
