• W3124724833 abstract "The Enviroclub initiative was developed by three federal government agenciesCanada Economic Development for Quebec Regions, Environment Canada and the National Research Council Canadaand launched in 2001 to assist small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in improving their profitability and competitiveness through enhanced environmental performance. An Enviroclub consists of a group of 10 15 SMEs involved in training sessions on environmental management and carrying out at least one profitable in-plant pollution prevention project. The objective of this article is to provide a cost benefit analysis (CBA) of this original initiative in order to inform policy makers as to the social desirability of such programs. One of the main social benefits of this initiative is to reduce emissions of various pollutants, so that one of our largest challenges is to place a value on these environmental improvements. To do so, we use the environmental value transfer method to obtain values from previous relevant studies. We conduct our CBA at three different levels: we consider the costs and benefits first for the whole of society, then from the participating firms' point of view and, finally, from the governments' perspective. We conclude that, whichever perspective we choose, the Enviroclub initiative has been highly profitable. L'initiative des Enviroclubs a ete developpee par trois agences federales Developpement economique Canada pour les regions du Quebec, Environnement Canada et le Conseil national de recherche du Canada et lancee en 2001 pour aider les petites et moyennes entreprises (PMEs) a ameliorer leur profitabilite et competitivite via une meilleure performance environnementale. Un Enviroclub consiste en un groupe de 10 a 15 PMEs impliquees dans des seances de formation en gestion de l'environnement et engagees a mettre en uvre au moins un projet rentable de prevention de la pollution. L'objectif de cet article est de fournir une analyse couts-benefices de cette initiative originale de facon a eclairer les decideurs publics quant au bien-fonde de tels programmes. Un des plus importants benefices sociaux de cette initiative est de reduire les emissions de plusieurs types de polluants, ce qui fait que l'un des defis principaux de cette recherche est de trouver la valeur monetaire de ces ameliorations environnementales. Pour ce faire, nous ferons du transfert de valeurs environnementales pour obtenir des valeurs qui viennent d'etudes existantes pertinentes. Nous menons notre analyse a trois niveaux. Premierement, nous considerons les couts et les benefices pour l'ensemble de la societe, ensuite pour les firmes qui participent aux programmes et enfin, pour les instances gouvernementales concernees. Nous concluons que, peu importe la perspective choisie, l'initiative des Enviroclubs s'avere rentable." @default.
