Summary
Chapter 13 reviews the extensions of the input–output framework to incorporate activities of environmental pollution and elimination associated with economic activities as well as the linkages of input–output to models of ecosystems. The chapter begins with the augmented Leontief model for incorporating pollution generation and elimination, from which many subsequent approaches have been developed. The chapter then describes the now widespread application of input–output analysis to environmental lifecycle assessment and establishing a “pollution footprint” for industrial activity. Environmental input–output is also now widely used to evaluate global environmental issues. The special case of analyzing the relationship between global climate change and industrial activity with a carbon footprint is then explored along with using input–output to attribute pollution generation to the demands driving consumption compared with the more traditional attribution of pollution generation to the sectors of industrial production necessary to meet that demand.
