One of today’s most vigorous tasks is to tackle the challenges presented by climate change. In
order to develop a better understanding of environmental damages caused by human activities, a
new approach is necessary. Neither the usual comprehensive analytic tools encompassing the
aggregate national economy as a whole, nor the indicators expressing details in an isolated way
are capable of providing an answer to such problems
The paper proposes a new method for environmental impact assessment by enumerating crosssectoral
damages using a model similar to the crossindustry input-output approach. The proposed
methodology would allow decision makers to assess national economy level decisions by exploring
cross-sectoral relationships with environmental impacts.
