Abstract
In the first part of this chapter, the concept of ‘environmental defensive expenditure’ will be defined and the economic significance of this aggregate will be discussed. Next, the accounting treatment of different types of defensive expenditures in the current system of national accounting will be described. Finally, the possibility of adding an account related to the defensive expenditures (with the aim of developing an indicator on “green” income) in an integrated economic-environmental national accounting system will be examined.
