Appendix II . Preliminary Sensitivity Analysis
نویسنده
چکیده
The main advantage and added value of the Environmental Performance Index (EPI) is that an aggregated index, with a set of environmental indicators measuring different aspects of sustainability, is more reliable than looking at each indicator separately. The Pilot Trend EPI, with information on the trends of nationsʼ sustainability levels over the last eleven years (2000-2010), is a particularly valuable addition to the 2012 EPI. There are, however, practical challenges in the EPI related to the quality of available data and the aggregation of these into a single number.
