a
ENDP = Ecological Net Domestic Product, in which GDP is adjusted for depletion and degradation of natural resources, on the basis of the
methodology employed by the United Nations. Only Mexico publishes this data. For <strong>20</strong>09, Mexico’s ENDP corresponds to 81% of GDP, with
the 19% loss being explained by the consumption of fixed capital (11% of GDP) and the total cost of environmental depletion and degradation
(8% of GDP).
