United Nations System of Environmental-Economic Accounting (UN SEEA)

The United Nations System of Environmental-Economic Accounting (UN SEEA) is a framework that integrates environmental data with economic data to provide a comprehensive view of how natural resources support economic activity. It tracks resources like water, minerals, and forests alongside financial information, helping policymakers understand the impact of the environment on the economy and vice versa. By doing so, UN SEEA supports sustainable development, allowing for better management of environmental assets and more informed decisions to balance economic growth with environmental protection.
