Green Gross Domestic Product was an attempt around 2004 by the Chinese government to reflect whole cost accounting or environmental accounting in their countries GDP. The attempt proved that it could be done but the effect lowered the countries GDP so much it was considered "politicallly unacceptable." This is not to say it should be done but that in the current global context it is political suicide for a country to implement it. So you have a case of environmental correctness in opposition to polictial expediancy.
