The program will investigate the possible development of a measurement system for eco-efficiency, including methods of assessing the eco-efficiency concept.

L'un des objectifs du Programme d'éco-efficacité de la Table ronde nationale sur l'environnement et l'économie consiste à conseiller le gouvernement fédéral sur l'établissement d'objectifs bien précis pour aider l'industrie et d'autres secteurs à devenir beaucoup plus éco-efficace en une génération, et sur les implications de ces objectifs pour le développement de nouvelles technologies. Le programme se penchera sur le développement possible d'un système de mesure de l'éco-efficacité, y compris des méthodes d'évaluation du concept de l'éco-efficacité. Il travaillera également en collaboration avec certains secteurs industriels pour choisir, concevoir et mettre en place un ensemble de base d'indicateurs de rendement environnemental [sic : de performance environnementale]. 1, record 2, French, - Programme%20d%27%C3%A9co%2Defficacit%C3%A9
