title = "A Linear Programming Model for Calculating Green National Incomes",
abstract = "The present-day Dutch System of National Accounts consists of a core, which gives the major macro-economic aggregates, and modules which deal with special subjects related to the core. As a part of the Dutch system recently an environmental module, the NAMEA, has been developed. The NAMEA is a purely descriptive statistic, presenting in one framework monetary and physical flows (emissions). In this paper we describe how the NAMEA can be transformed into a linear programming model linking emissions to productions and consumption levels. We present model simulations which determine changes in value added and household consumption required for reducing emission levels. We find that limited reductions are possible without a decrease in net domestic product. More substantial reductions lead to a decline in output approximately proportional to the size of reductions. The model can be used to clarify interpretations of “green national incomes”.",
