Green Accounting Bibliography Entry

Bartelmus, Peter. Greening the National Accounts: Approach and Policy Use. United Nations, Department for Economic and Social Information and Policy Analysis, Working Paper Series No. 3 (January 1999). [ full text]

Discusses the necessary extension of the asset boundary of conventional national accounts in order to account for environmental assets. Presents to main policy implications of green accounting: "(a) the use of environmentally adjusted 'eco-nomic' variables in macroeconomic policy and (b) the setting of market instruments of cost internalization according to the environmental cost generated by economic agents."
