Guide to 'Environment and economy (NAMEA)' section

Statistics Netherlands has developed a system (NAMEA) for describing environmental aspects in conjunction with the National Accounts (standardised statistics relating to the economy). This system shows the relationships between a number of important economic indicators (gross domestic product, balance of payments etc.) and emissions, waste and energy use.
