Perhaps this is what helped him to discern the important differences between "Deep Ecology," which addresses the root causes of biodiversity loss, and "Shallow Ecology," that attempts to remediate environmental problems with end-of-pipe fixes.

They went and invented the catalytic converter, which de-toxified (or, at least, less-toxified) the exhaust as an end-of-pipe solution.

Green roofs -- roofs covered with living plants, which are, by the way, beautiful -- as opposed to ones made of tar or other impervious materials, absorb water and are a less expensive way to capture water than trying to control it through end-of-pipe ideas.

Signed into law by Governor Michael Dukakis, TURA was the first state law – and certainly one of the strongest - seeking broad implementation of pollution prevention (P2), a strategy contrasted with end-of-pipe pollution control.

Public and private sector establishments are becoming more interested in undertaking preventive measures to control air pollution, and there is a detectable shift from end-of-pipe treatments to a more proactive approach. including cleaner production and waste minimization at source.

The focus of EU environmental policy moved from the use of remedial measures in the 1970s to end-of-pipe pollution reduction solutions in the 1980s, then to integrated pollution prevention and control, using best available techniques, in the 1990s.

Besides the end-of-pipe technical solution, a number of economic and social instruments regarding bans or limitation of phosphorus-contained detergents have been introduced in some regions of China and other places in western countries – aimed at an effective abatement at source.

As phosphorus leakages take place in all societal sectors, it could be extremely difficult – as well as expensive – to intercept all phosphorus effluents that potentially harm the surface water by conventional end-of-pipe approaches.
