L'objectif de la comptabilité sociale consiste à évaluer les effets positifs (les avantages ou bienfaits sociaux) ou négatifs (les coûts sociaux) des activités d'une entité sur la situation financière et le bien-être physique et moral à la fois des personnes associées directement à l'entité en cause (personnel, membres, clients, fournisseurs, investisseurs, etc.) et des tiers que les activités de cette entité favorisent ou lèsent en raison de son emplacement ou pour tout autre motif. 1, record 11, French, - comptabilit%C3%A9%20sociale

La comptabilité sociale conduit au bilan social, document récapitulant les principales donnés chiffrées qui permettent d'apprécier la situation de l'entité dans le domaine social, d'enregistrer les réalisations effectuées et de mesurer les changements intervenus au cours de l'année écoulée. En France, le bilan social résulte d'une exigence légale et il contient notamment des données portant sur l'emploi, la rémunération, les conditions d'hygiène et de sécurité, la formation, les relations professionnelles et les autres conditions de vie relevant de l'entreprise. Toute cette information porte, en France, le nom d'information sociale. On emploie l'expression information sociétale pour désigner les données que les entreprises communiquent en réponse aux actions menées par les mouvements de consommateurs ou les défenseurs de l'environnement en vue de faire prendre conscience aux entreprises de la complexité et de l'importance des relations qu'elles entretiennent délibérément ou à leur insu avec le milieu naturel, humain et psychologique dans lequel elles s'insèrent. 1, record 11, French, - comptabilit%C3%A9%20sociale

Since only about 1% of the CFMs are dissociated each year, a small tropospheric sink would have tremendous impact. For example, if a tropospheric sink accounted for only 2% of the CFMs released, the peak ozone reduction would be reduced by two-thirds. Direct measurement of a tropospheric sink is not possible because both the CFM release to the atmosphere and the atmospheric burden of CFMs is imprecisely known. 1, record 17, English, - tropospheric%20sink

Monitoring simply means repetitive measurement. In the general context of environmental impact assessment, it usually refers to the measurement of environmental variables after a development proposal has been initiated(the baseline constituting such measurement before project initiation). In the specific context of ecological investigations within impact assessment(i. e., the context of this report), our use of the term monitoring refers to repetitive measurement of specific ecological phenomena to document change primarily for the purposes of(i) testing impact hypotheses and predictions and(ii) testing mitigative measures. 1, record 20, English, - impact%20hypotheses

La surveillance est une mesure répétitive. Dans le cadre général des évaluations d'incidences environnementales, il s'agit habituellement de la mesure de variables environnementales, après le début de la réalisation d'un projet de mise en valeur (C'est l'étude des conditions de base antérieure à ce début qui sert au contrôle). Dans le cadre plus particulier des études écologiques au sein d'une évaluation des incidences (par ex., le contexte de ce rapport), le terme surveillance désigne la mesure répétée de différents phénomènes écologiques, dont les résultats servent à surveiller les changements, principalement pour (i) évaluer les hypothèses d'incidences et les prévisions, et (ii) mettre des mesures d'atténuation à l'essai. 1, record 20, French, - hypoth%C3%A8se%20d%27incidence
