Joseph Ling, who was born in Beijing, earned a bachelor of science in engineering from Hangchow Christian University in Shanghai. He arrived in the U.S. in 1948 and enrolled at the University of Minnesota. Ling received a master of science in engineering and a doctorate in sanitary engineering in 1952. He later went on to a long and distinguished career as an environmental engineer and later vice president at 3M where he pioneered the “Pollution Prevention Pays” program in 1975, a program still in place today aimed at preventing pollution at the source rather than removing it after it has been created. | |||
Among numerous awards, Ling was nominated by U.S. President Richard Nixon to be a member of the Consulting Committee of the Air Quality and he was elected to the U.S. National Academy of Engineering in 1976. | |||
