The environment industry consists of activities that produce environmental products to measure, prevent, limit, minimize or correct environmental damage to water, air and soil, as well as problems related to waste, noise and ecosystems. This includes cleaner technologies, products and services that reduce environmental risk and minimize pollution and resource use as well as activities related to resource management, resource exploitation and natural hazards. The environment industry cuts across conventional industrial classifications and therefore makes the data collection difficult. Are the concepts of the environment industry mature enough to be included in the volume 1 of the revised SEEA? |
