The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation, Government of India, released the second volume of the EnviStats – India 2023 report on September 29, 2023. This is the sixth edition in the series, which was first published in 2018. Volume I of the present edition was released on April 17, 2023.The analyses presented in this report follow the System of Environmental Economic Accounting (SEEA) adopted by the United Nations which provides a statistical framework to quantify the “interaction between the economy and the environment” and “measure the condition of the environment, the contribution of the environment to the economy and the impact of the economy on the environment.” The report derives data from numerous national, state and district-level authorities such as the Ministry of Commerce; Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change; Ministry of Fisheries; the International Union for Conservation of Nature and others. The report provides data on the generation and management of solid waste in seven states and union territories: Chandigarh, Gujarat, Jammu and Kashmir, Maharashtra, Mizoram, Rajasthan and Tamil Nadu. It also tracks fish provisioning services in the country, that is, the value of the ecosystems and water bodies in which the fisheries sector works. The 189-page report is categorised into five chapters: Introduction (Chapter 1); Material Flow Accounts (Chapter 2); Solid Waste Accounts (Chapter 3); Fish Provisioning Services (Chapter 4); and Soil Erosion Prevention Services by the Forests (Chapter 5).
