Analys av miljöpåverkan för hållbar utveckling

This fact sheet describes the Resources and Energy Analysis Programme (REAP), an analysis tool developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) to calculate and illustrate the environmental impact of consumption at local, regional, and national levels. It emphasizes the importance of accounting for the entire life cycle of products, including production in other countries, to understand the full ecological footprint of consumption.

• The REAP tool is designed to analyze the environmental impact of consumption, which is often significantly larger than the impact of domestic production because many consumed goods are imported from other countries.
• REAP provides data on the effects of consumption for individuals and households within specific geographic areas using three primary indicators: energy sources, the ecological footprint, and greenhouse gases (specifically carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and F-gases).
• The tool includes a scenario function that allows users to modify data to predict how changes in population growth, consumption patterns, housing standards, or transport habits will affect CO2 emissions and the ecological footprint.
• Methodologically, REAP utilizes an environmentally extended input-output model. It is a "four-region" model that tracks the flow of goods and services between Sweden and three other regions across 178 industries using the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system.
• The program has been implemented in different versions: a British version completed in February 2006 in collaboration with WWF-UK and CURE, and a Swedish version presented in April 2011 developed with WWF in Sweden. Work is also ongoing at the European level via EUREAPA.
