National Environmental Accounting: A Practical Introduction

Author

  • Hecht, Joy E.

Abstract

Environmental accounts have been in the air for decades. As early as the 1970s, a few European countries were experimenting with ways to build environmental data into their national accounts, and by the late 1980s the United Nations and other international organizations were beginning to organize the proliferation of methods that had been proposed to build the accounts. This led to the publication, in 1993, of an interim handbook on environmental accounting, and, in 2003, of a greatly revised and much more detailed handbook.
