Sustainable materials management and Pollution Prevention (SMM-P2) combine two practices that form an approach to serving human needs by using/reusing resources most productively and sustainably throughout their life cycles, generally minimizing the amount of materials involved and all the associated environmental impacts.

This process can help municipalities address the emerging priorities of materials management, energy, climate, air quality, and water quality.
