Environmental accounts are satellite accounts to the national accounts,
measuring the interactions between the economy and the environment.
The UK Environmental Accounts were released at 9.30am on 11 June 2010.
Alongside the latest statistics, an article has been published outlining the
proposed strategy for the UK Environmental Accounts for the next 3 years.
The Office for National Statistics is holding an open consultation on this
proposed strategy and any comments are welcomed to
[email protected].
Specific points of interest are:

Plans to move from a 6-monthly to an annual publication in order to
refocus resources on developing the accounts

Priorities for the development programme

The role of environmental accounts in wider ONS-led work on measuring
societal wellbeing, that is measures of progress and wellbeing that go
beyond GDP.
