| Abstract | Environmentally extended input-output (EEIO) databases have been widely used by both input-output and life cycle analysis practitioners to study the environmental effects of products and processes in different sectors and regions. More recently, efforts have been focused on developing harmonized time-series of EEIO tables at both national and global levels, allowing a better understanding of the dynamics of such impacts. Based on the USEEIO framework, we develop a novel harmonized time-series of EEIO tables for the United States covering the benchmark Make-Use Tables from 2002, 2007 and 2012, and the same set of comprehensive physical accounts as the original USEEIO. We discuss the methodology employed, possible applications, and present the evolution of national aggregated environmental indicators over these years. |
