This report summarises key results of the INCA project achieved by 2020. It presents ecosystem extent accounts (for 9 broad types of ecosystems), ecosystem condition accounts (for forests, agro-ecosystems and rivers and lakes) and ecosystem services accounts (for a subset of ecosystem services) for the EU. In separate chapters, the report also presents practical examples of the possible uses of ecosystem services accounts and existing policy applications. In addition, the report outlines crucial steps for making ecosystem accounts operational.
