Abstract:
The aim of the article is to develop a methodology and study the results of calculating the load of direct and indirect emissions on final demand based on the data from the aggregated costs-emissions scheme of Ukraine. The article examines the total load of carbon dioxide, nitric oxide and methane emissions on the end use of three groups of economic activities of the Ukrainian economy in 2017. The largest emitter is the secondary sector (industry), whose share in the total load of emissions is about 50 % for carbon dioxide, nitric oxide, and methane. The tertiary sector (the services sector) is the second largest emitter. During 2013–2017, there observed a downward trend in the load of emissions on the final demand of the studied sectors, especially for 2013–2014. A scenario “reduction in the total economic cost of production ? change in emissions” is developed and implemented. It characterizes the elasticity of the release of all emissions to the total economic cost of production – a decrease in the total cost by 1 % leads to a relative decrease in the release of all emissions by 1.41 %, 1.62 %, 1.71 %. Prospects for further research are the expansion of the calculation scheme to 10 economic activities, 19 economic activities, 42 economic activities, 10 types of emissions; application of uniform methodological approaches and single arrays for comparative environmental and economic research; elaboration of a costs-emissions scheme with additional technologies “processing of emissions” and quadrants “interbranch flows of economic activities for processing emissions”, “additional release of emissions in processing emissions” for Ukraine.

Keywords: atmospheric emissions, environmental accounts, total load of emissions on final demand, elasticity of emissions, groups of economic activities (primary, secondary and tertiary sectors).
