Natural
Capital: A Critical Foundation of Our Economy
National
Round Table on the Environment and the Economy - 2004 Greening
of the Budget Submission
To
sustain a healthy society and economy, the federal government
needs to bring a better accounting of natural capital assets
into its fiscal policy-that's the theme of the recommendations
in the NRTEE 2004 Greening of the Budget submission.
This
year, the Greening of the Budget submission focuses
on measures aimed at ensuring a more fully balanced budget
- in other words, a budget that moves beyond simple fiscal
balance to bring into equilibrium economic, environmental,
and societal objectives.
