摘要
Measuring environmental efficiency is a key tool for monitoring the progress of EU countries in achieving common environmental policy goals. The presented study deals with this issue on a sample of 27 EU countries in the period 2000-2020 using the DEA method. The results point to persistent differences between member countries, with new member states achieving better values compared to old member states. Despite the significant reductions in greenhouse gases, sulphur oxides and nitrogen oxides that have been recorded for all EU countries, there is no improvement in environmental efficiency over time for countries with average and low efficiency, which represent eight Member States. The study also confirmed that it is possible to achieve high environmental efficiency even while achieving economic development.
