Analysis of the relationship between green national accounts and some indicators of economic stability in the United States of America for the period (2004-2021(

Abstract

The research aims to shed light on the analysis of the development of green national accounts and some indicators of economic stability in the United States of America for the period (2004-2021), as green national accounts are an information system like other financial accounting, because they record the economic events carried out by economic activities in the country in the field of environmental protection, represented by environmental costs and the resulting environmental revenues. The research problem was represented by the increase in emissions resulting from industries that rely on non-renewable energy sources represented by fossil fuels, in addition to the depletion of threatened resources in a short period, and then its impact was negatively reflected on economic growth and development. The research is based on the hypothesis that adopting green national accounts as a new development approach that takes into account the environmental impacts on the economy is an important and smooth step towards achieving economic growth and sustainable development. One of the most important conclusions reached by the researcher is that green national accounts represent an important step towards achieving sustainable development that combines economic growth and environmental conservation, by integrating environmental dimensions into national accounts, as countries can achieve a better balance between the use of natural and economic resources, which enhances public welfare in the long term, and this can be clarified by conducting an analytical study to prove this.
