35. European Elections 2019, industry, environment and lack of information



More maps and data about the European Union



European elections of 2018: New challenges for the European Union

There is a breach among EU bureaucracies and many social groups in several European countries. European Union would be a good club of countries if the breach would be overcome. More information, better economic and social policies are necessary.
It is important to improve the quality of economic policies in Europe. The voice of many university researchers, in fields of economy, environment, health, quality of life, and many other subjects, should be present in televisions and social means and advising political parties and institutions. This is a real challenge for Europe in the first decades of the 21st century.

Industry and economic crisis in Europe:

It is important to foster industrial development in many European countries. The commercial policies addressed to foster foreign trade with other countries should be compatible with a sound policy in order to avoid stagnation of industry in many European countries. On the other hand it is also important to favour tecnologies and policies addressed to diminish the environmental negative impact of some industries.
Switzerland is a country with very high levels of industrial development, higher than Germany and the United States,  and with less contamination than those countries, is a positive example of environmental technology and policies.

The following table shows the differences of real Value-Added of Industry per capita in 5 European Union countries in comparison with Switzerland and the United States.

We may notice a decrease of industrial real value-added per capita for the period 2000-2010 in the following countries: France, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom. This is the consequence of failures in the European Union economic polices, without enough support to keep and increase real value-added of industry per capita in many European Union countries, which is important for reaching higher levels of economic development and employment.

Industry and CO2 emissions

It is possible to have a high level of industrial production per capita and moderate levels of CO2 emissions, such it is the case of Switzerland in comparison with other less industrialized countries with higher levels of environmental contamination.  It is important international cooperation to make compatible development of industries necessary for well-being with a good quality of environment and diminution of CO2 emissions.

Comparison of  CO2 per capita in countries of table 1 in comparison with other areas,

Table 2 shows the evolution of contamination by CO2 per capita (Tm) in 9 countries, together with World average and values of European Union 28.

Source: Elaborated by Guisan(2019) from statistics of:  EDGARv4.2FT2012, European Commission, Joint Research Centre (JRC)/PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency. Emission Database for Global Atmospheric Research (EDGAR), release version 4.2. http://edgar.jrc.ec.europe.eu, 2014: Countries: Germany (De), Spain (Es), France (Fr), Italy (It), United Kingdom (UK), United States (USA), Switzerland (CH), India (In), China (Cn).

In year 2015 the lowest value among industrialized countries correspond to Switzerland, with a value of 4.83 slightly below World average, in spite of its highest value of industry per capita. Some countries like Spain, France, Italy and the UK have values of CO2 per capita slighty over World average. China with 7.73, Germany with 9.64 and the USA with 16.07 have very high values. 

Industrial and environmental policies in Europe and  in the World.

European Policies since year 2019 should increase industrial development in many EU countries, due to their positive effects on development and employment in other sectors. Those policies should be combined with environmental protection, in order to diministh the emissions of CO2 per capital. 

Regarding the increase of CO2 in the World for the period 1970 to 2015, we have calculated that only a 13% was due to the increase in CO2 per capita and 87% to the increase of population.
Given that accordingly to Guisan, Aguayo and Exposito(2001) and other studies, the educational level of population is one of the most important factors in order to avoid excessive increases of population, the main conclusion is that diminution of CO2 emission, compatible with industrialization at World level, requires to increase the educational level of population and also to favor financing of environmental policies.



Real value-added  per capita of industrial sectors in 6 OECD countries
The following graphs present a comparison of Real Value-added of Industrial Production, in year 2015, expressed in Euros at constant prices of year 2010.
