This document discusses key challenges in developing ecosystem accounts that integrate ecosystem services and capital into national accounts. It identifies four main challenges: 1) defining ecosystem services in an accounting context, 2) allocating services to institutional sectors, 3) treating ecosystem degradation and rehabilitation, and 4) valuing services consistently with national accounting principles. The document analyzes different perspectives on these challenges and proposes a consistent conceptual approach to address them, including recognizing that ecosystems are influenced by humans and recording some services as contributions by private landowners or a new "Ecosystems" sector.

This document summarizes the statistical challenges in estimating the health effects of air pollution using areal unit study designs. It discusses how air pollution and health data are spatially misaligned at different geographical scales. It also describes potential sources of uncertainty and bias, like measurement error in pollution estimates and ecological bias. As an example, it presents results from a study that used a log-linear Poisson model to examine the relationship between PM10 and respiratory hospitalizations in Italy, finding a 3.5% increased risk per 1 mg/m3 increase in PM10. Overall, the document critiques statistical approaches for analyzing spatially-referenced air pollution and health data.

161125 UN Tax Committee Carbon Tax FINAL version PDFSusanne
The document discusses the potential for developing countries to implement carbon taxes based on Sweden's experience with carbon taxation since 1991. Some key points:
1) Carbon taxes can be effective at reducing emissions and raising revenues at low administrative costs by taxing fossil fuels upstream with few tax payers.
2) Revenues from carbon taxes in Sweden are about 1.6% of GDP and have been used to fund options to replace fossil fuels and address impacts on low-income households.
3) Sweden's carbon tax rates have increased over time from initial low levels, helping drive a 25% reduction in emissions while economic growth was 69%.
4) Carbon taxes are seen as generally accepted by Swedes due to environmental

This document summarizes France's efforts in green budgeting. It describes France's commitment to assessing the environmental impacts of its public finances and budget. The methodology classifies budget expenditures on a scale from very favorable to unfavorable based on their impacts on climate change mitigation, adaptation, and other environmental objectives. Results show most expenditures are neutral, while around €35 billion are favorable and €25 billion are unfavorable. Favorable expenditures include investments in renewable energy, rail infrastructure, and research. Unfavorable expenditures include tax exemptions on fuels and some new transport infrastructure projects. Challenges ahead include improving impact assessments, evaluating efficiency of spending, and enabling international comparisons of fiscal expenditures.

The OECD has developed an inventory approach to measure government support for fossil fuels across 44 countries. The inventory documents close to 1200 support policies provided in the form of direct transfers, tax expenditures, revenue foregone, risk transfers, and induced transfers. In 2017, OECD and partner countries provided around $140 billion in support, down 40% from the 2013 peak. However, broader IEA-OECD estimates found a slight increase in global support to $340 billion in 2017. Going forward, the OECD aims to expand the inventory's coverage, measure risk transfer costs, study the impact of support, and phase out inefficient subsidies by 2030 as part of UN Sustainable Development Goals.
This document summarizes a research article that analyzes the impact of Italy's COVID-19 lockdown measures on carbon footprint (CF). The study finds that Italy's lockdown led to an approximately 20% reduction in CF compared to past years from 2015-2019 for the same time period. This equates to 5.6-10.6 million tons of avoided carbon dioxide equivalent emissions. Northern Italian regions saw higher average savings of around 230,000 tons of emissions per province due to shutdowns in industrial activity. The lockdown has significantly reduced energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions from transportation and industry.

The document analyzes the energy and environmental impacts of increased biomass use in residential heating in Italy through 2030 under various policy scenarios. It finds that:
1) Under a reference scenario that meets 2020 targets, biomass consumption in the residential sector increases to around 19 Mtoe by 2030, accounting for over 60% of fine particulate emissions.
2) A constant biomass scenario that limits consumption to 2014 levels still meets emissions reductions but achieves a slightly different energy mix.
3) A deeper decarbonization scenario reduces emissions 36% by 2030 primarily through reductions in transport, buildings, and industry, with renewables reaching 28% of total energy supply.

This document summarizes information on environmental issues in Australia. It finds that while Australia has made progress in decoupling economic growth from environmental pressures like emissions and resource use, more can still be done. Carbon pricing and taxation are relatively low compared to other countries. Biodiversity loss continues with many species listings increasing. Protected land coverage has expanded but gaps remain. Funding for biodiversity conservation has also been low. Chemical usage is widespread and most existing chemicals remain untested, with risk management varying between states. Overall the document evaluates both achievements and remaining challenges for Australia's environment.

This document discusses promoting sustainability and a circular economy in Europe. It describes Italy's work analyzing environmentally harmful and friendly subsidies. It advocates shifting taxes from labor to natural resources and pollution to incentivize resource efficiency and a circular economy. Government policies like green fiscal reform and removing fossil fuel subsidies can help finance innovation for sustainability goals. Economic instruments including taxes, fees, and markets can internalize environmental costs.
Sustainable Development Panel Nov 2014 Prague - Simon UptonOECD Environment
Simon Upton from the OECD discusses several ways to promote sustainable development through economic instruments:
1) Putting a price on carbon through taxes or emissions trading can help internalize environmental costs and send the right market signals to shift to lower-carbon activities.
2) Reforming fossil fuel subsidies can also help shift incentives toward cleaner technologies and boost investment in green infrastructure.
3) Aligning policies across different domains like climate, energy, fiscal, and trade can maximize synergies and ensure a coherent policy framework for sustainable development.

The document summarizes the outlook for the Dutch waste management sector between 1990-2020. It describes the transition from primarily landfilling waste in the 1990s to increased recycling and waste prevention today. By 2020, 50% of household waste and 70% of construction waste in the EU must be recycled. The Netherlands has developed one of the top waste management systems in the EU, recycling around 80% of its waste. However, with overcapacity expected in waste incineration by 2020, the Netherlands may import more waste from other EU countries like the UK and Ireland that have yet to develop adequate waste treatment infrastructure.

Evaluation of the energy consumption and greenhouse gas emission related to I...Riccardo Beltramo
In the recent years the evaluation of environmental sustainability of lifestyles and consumption practices is getting a central role in European researches. Several
analytical tools and methodologies are proposed in order to quantify the environmental burden of production and consumption. Environmental impact assessment methods are mainly divided in bottom-up (e.g. the Life Cycle Assessment-LCA) and top-down (e.g. the Input-
Output Analysis-IOA), the first is focused on production processes and the second on the macroeconomic dimension of a community. Thus both of them are unsuitable to investigate at the level of practices and lifestyles.
We discuss the advantage of an hybrid IOA-LCA method, which is developed to consider both positive aspects of bottom-up and top-down methodologies, in the
evaluation of household consumption. This method has been applied just to the food sector as a test of the whole methodology

Coordinamento FREE represents 27 Italian renewable energy and energy efficiency associations. Mr. Garcia proposed four main topics for cooperation: 1) multiscale energy planning and integrated energy systems, 2) energy technologies for local production and storage, 3) energy policies at municipal and regional levels, and 4) environmental protection strategies. He then provided two example cases, one on the aging of Italian wind farms and risks of decommissioning, and another on best practices for sustainable biogas production in Italy. Mr. Garcia invited attendees to the Key Energy conference in Rimini, Italy to further discuss opportunities.
The document discusses the organisation, output, and dissemination of environmental economic accounting in the Netherlands. It describes how Statistics Netherlands compiles the Dutch environmental accounts using various data sources and in accordance with international standards. The main accounts cover energy, water, materials, waste, emissions, taxes, and the environmental goods and services sector. Outputs are disseminated through an online database and publications. Future work includes developing new accounts for materials, ecosystems, and renewable energy, as well as improving existing accounts.
This document discusses alternatives to traditional measures of GDP and GNP for assessing national economic performance and well-being. It describes several proposed alternative indicators that attempt to more fully account for environmental and social factors such as natural capital, non-market activities, income inequality, and sustainability. These proposed indicators include Green GDP, Adjusted Net Savings, Genuine Progress Indicator, Better Life Index, and Environmental Asset Accounts. Proponents of these alternative indicators argue that GDP does not adequately reflect changes in environmental quality or sustainability and should be supplemented with additional metrics. However, there is still no universal consensus on how to best measure economic performance and well-being when considering environmental and social factors.

7. Environmental accounts integrate existing environmental data and ensure
coherence with national accounts. The accounts structure provides a wide range of
comparable information and higher quality data. They have several functions:
1) Support to the analysis and in depth studies by allowing meaningful associations
and establishing ratios between national accounts aggregates and their
environmental counterparts
2) Data in the form of aggregates and indicators can be applied to issues and areas
which are the focus of decision makers
3) The detailed information, which covers some of the key drivers of change in the
environment, can be used to provide a richer understanding of the policy issues
4) To be used in models and scenarios designed to assess the national and
international economic and environmental effects of different policies within a
country, between countries and at a global level

Report flows of energy (including natural inputs used to manufacture energy
products and energy residuals) from the environment into the economy, within
the economy and from the economy to the environment (expressed in terajoule)
Energy flows are reported with a breakdown by type of natural inputs, products
and residuals (20 products) as well as by supplier and user (64 industries plus
households).
Supply-Use tables: resources by origin and uses by destination
PEFA can be used for energy productivity, analyses, modelling, etc. It provides
relevant information for integrated analysis (total consumption of energy,
consumption relevant for air emissions, consumption per unit of value added,
other)
