Environmental industry
Article Abstract:
Prospects for internally-generated revenues are lackluster for most companies in the environmental industry, but investors need to be aware of consolidation in three industry sectors. Growth has been modest for landfill operations and waste hauling in the 1990s, and results for water-treatment companies are also mixed. These stocks are attractive for the next three to five years, but changes due to mergers need to be considered by investors.

Environmental industry
Article Abstract:
The acquisition of United Waste Systems Inc by USA Waste Services Inc has created the third largest company in the environmental industry. Improvement in the used newspaper supply/demand situation and corrugated cardboard price rises should also allow some companies to improve earnings, and increased demand for remediation and water-treatment services are positive. Timely stocks in this industry should be the focus for investors.
