  • 261. Research and development (R&D) expenditures for environmental protection (ep) in Canadian industry, 1995 Archived
    Stats in brief: 88-001-X19970128034
    Description: Industrial R&D expenditures for environmental protection represented 2% of total R&D expenditures in 1995. This small share, which has been maintained since 1990, is likely to be an underestimate due to those R&D investments mainly undertaken to improve production efficiency. In such cases, R&D expenditures on environmental protection would not be reported despite the additional benefits to the environment that may be achieved.

  • 262. Research and development (R&D) for pollution abatement and control in Canadian industry, 1990, 1991 and 1993 Archived
    Stats in brief: 88-001-X19960117976
    Description:

    The data presented here are likely to understate the total research and development expenditures that have a positive impact on the environment since efforts to find better and more efficient solutions are not generally considered in the narrower light of pollution abatement.
