摘要：The contribution of the environmental industry to the economy of Nova Scotia will be revealed here by an analysis of industry size distribution, productivity levels, and growth potential. Few precedents exist for this kind of analysis. The characteristics of environmental firms in the European Economie Community (EEC) were assessed in a report to the Organisation for Economie Co-operation and Development (OECD 1985). And in a report to Environment Canada, William Glenn (1987) analyzed employment opportunities provided by the Canadian environmental protection industry. Such studies, however, focused on specifie components of the environmental industry (such as pollution control firms) rather than the whole industry. This study is therefore the first to assess the output of a broadly defined environmental industry for a discrete region.
