ECONOMIC PROBLEMS OF THE NATURE MANAGEMENT УДК 330.8:303:502/504 1Institute of Environmental Economics and Sustainable Development of the NAS of Ukraine, Research ID : http://www.researcherid.com/rid/https://www.scopus.com/authid/detail.uri?authorId=36661489700 ECOSYSTEM APPROACH FOR ESTIMATING ECONOMIC DAMAGE FROM ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION: UKRAINIAN AUTHENTICITY Conceptual clusters of “environmental pollution” and “economic damage from environmental pollution” are revealed and the low level of advancement of conceptual foundations of ecosystem approach in the practice of domestic economy is researched. Using ecosystem approach, the structuring of economic damage from environmental pollution by ecosystem objects of losses was carried out for the first time. This covers at least six ecosystem objects: (i) losses from degradation of biodiversity ecosystems; (ii) losses due to deterioration or destruction of ecosystem goods, services, functions; (iii) losses caused due to violation of the ecosystem’s assimilation potential; (iv) damage caused to the natural and economic complex; (v) losses from damage and destruction of bioresources segments of the national economy; (vi) losses caused to nature-oriented production or industry of the national economy. Keywords:environmental pollution; economic damage from environmental pollution; ecosystem approach; ecosystem assessment; ecosystem objects Бібл. 3; рис. 1
