Abstract
The 34-day hostilities in Lebanon
started on July 12, 2006 and continued until August 14,
2006, when the ceasefire entered in force. This report
provides an order of magnitude estimate of the cost of
environmental degradation caused by the July 2006
hostilities in Lebanon. Chapter 1 introduces the
study's objectives, assumptions and valuation methods
used. Chapter 2 provides an overview and valuation of the
oil spill impacts. Chapters 3-7 estimate the impacts of the
hostilities on waste, water, quarries, air and forests.
