Econnections...linking the environment and the economy

A powerful information system from Statistics Canada

While Canadians want a strong economy, they also want economic development that is environmentally sustainable. But how do we know that we are moving in the right direction? What indicators are available to track our progress - or lack of progress? The answer is Econnections.

Econnections is a CD-ROM based package that offers:

• summary indicators tracking progress toward sustainable economic development;
• detailed environmental and economic information highlighting the connection between the economy and the environment; and
• a printed publication for quick reference to the summary indicators and statistical tables.

Indicators are grouped by theme

Econnections organizes environmental and economic information into sets of summary indicators around the following environmental themes:

• Natural resource stocks;
• Use of land resources;
• Waste production and consumption of materials and energy;
• Environmental protection expenditures.

Who benefits from making Econnections?

Econnections will be indispensable to anyone needing detailed data on the environment and the economy. Whether you are a researcher, environmental decision maker, consultant, journalist or teacher, you'll find Econnections invaluable.
