  24. Socio-economic Consequences Socio-economic consequences The consequences of the environmental impacts in terms of social and economic effects, both direct and indirect, such as loss of revenue, lowering quality of life, health The effects of biophysical changes on the social and economic well-being of the population, e.g. reduced revenues from fisheries or health risks Environmental impacts The effects of activities on the biophysical environment, e.g. changes in species composition or mortality of marine organisms Transboundary problem Underlying sector and immediate causes The immediate causes of the problem, including the sectors associated with such causes, e.g. effluent streams related to industries and coastal settlements; soil erosion related to agriculture and forestry, etc. Root causes The underlying (fundamental) reasons for the problem, e.g. poverty, bad governance or financial constraints Causal chain and governance analysis UNEP/GEF WIO-LaB Project
