Abbie’s research is focused on the Sitting of Manufacturing/ Remanufacturing Facilities to Minimize the Combined Effects of Costs and Environmental Impacts. In addition, Abigail Clarke-Sather co-authored a sustainability report for Ecologic Designs that won the Best SME (Small/Medium Enterprise) Report for 2008 from CorporateRegister.com.
