Abstract | This study identifies the production and service activities that constitute environmental protection (EP) activities in the U.S. economy. Chapter 2, starts by reviewing previous attempts at developing an EP industry definition. Chapter 3, generates the data needed to fill the cells of EP input-output (I-O) matrices and documents all data sources and data construction techniques. Chapter 4, describes how the 1977 and 1982 EP I-O tables are used to estimate employment attributable to EP. Chapter 5, describes procedures and data sources used to update the 1982 EP I-O tables to 1985, 1988, and 1991. Chapter 6, demonstrates how the EP I-O tables can be used to derive measures of the size of the EP 'industry' and a modified Leontief multiplier for calculating indirect EP employment. |
