Objectif To provide monetary and physical estimates of environmental impacts of economic and social activities, with the object of including these in an EU-wide environmental accounting framework usable by policy makers, both at the national and community level.OBJECTIVES: To provide monetary and physical estimates of environmental impacts of economic and social activities, with the object of including these in an EU-wide environmental accounting framework usable by policy makers, both at the national and community level. DESCRIPTION: The research is carried out in Italy, Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom and focuses on: i) the development of a methodology for the valuation and construction of environmental accounts appropriate to the needs of policy-makers. This entails intensive discussion with policy makers who use, or would like to use, environmental accounts; ii) the estimation of environmental impacts at the national level in physical and monetary terms. The research here involves the updating and improving of these estimates as well as making sure that the valuations are consistent; iii) the preparation of estimates of the damage attributable to different sources (energy, transport, industry); iv) the estimation of "defensive expenditures" (i.e. expenditures undertaken to mitigate the impacts of pollution) in each country and the establishment of a framework common to the estimates of damage; v) the replicability of the estimates across the EU are assessed, using a standardized framework.
