Database Specific
Database Specific Abstract AbstractData is expressed in million national currency.
Environmental protection (EP) includes all activities and actions which have as their main purpose the prevention, reduction and elimination of pollution as well as any other degradation of the environment. The scope of environmental protection expenditure is defined according to the Classification of Environmental Protection Activities (CEPA 2000). CEPA distinguishes nine environmental domains.
The Environmental Protection Expenditure Account (EPEA) is a monetary description of environmental protection activities in accordance with the System of Environmental-economic Accounting (SEEA) central framework. It is coherent with the European System of Accounts (ESA 2010) which applies to national accounts and related satellite accounts.
Because the full EPEA framework is quite expensive in terms of resources to be set up, this EPEA module significantly simplifies the full framework while it still allows compiling a measure of environmental protection expenditure for the whole economy comparable with national accounts aggregates.
This data focuses on the production and uses of environmental protection services. Output of these services can be output of market, non-market and ancillary activities. EPEA is directly linked to the three definitions of GDP, the production measure, the expenditure measure and the income measure of GDP.

Data for the public sector refers only to the general government, for there is no data for non-profit institutions serving households. Data for specialist and ancillary producers is estimates sourced from a business expenditure survey. GFCF (gross fixed capital formation) for manufacture of chemicals and chemical products and of basic pharmaceutical products and pharmaceutical preparations are combined, as well as for manufacture of motor vehicles and of other transport equipment. Furthermore, the Canadian industrial classification does not correspond exactly to ISIC/NACE (it includes larger industrial groupings).
