This title was first published in 2003. Our cherished economic
indicators of income, product, consumption and capital fail in
taking a long-term view of social progress. They do not account for
environmental deterioration, which impairs the quality of life of
present and future generations, and hence the sustainability of
development. "Greening" the conventional national (and corporate)
accounts introduces environmental impacts and costs into these
accounts and balances. The result is a new compass for steering the
economy towards sustainability, which may change not only our main
measures of economic performance but also the basic tenets of
environmental and resource policies. This book presents
methodological advances and case studies of environmental
accounting, and discusses their use in environmental management and
policies. In their introduction, the editors provide a critical
perspective of historical developments and current debates.
