2012 Environmental Performance Index: Environmental Health Objective

The 2012 EPI builds on measures relevant to the goal of reducing environmental stresses to human health, which are grouped into one objective category named environmental health. The objective weight is 30% of the overall EPI. Environmental health scores are based on three constituent policy categories: environmental burden of disease, air pollution (human health effects) and water (human health effects). The full report including a completer description of the EPI, underlying data sets, and methodology is available online at the NASA Socioeconomic Data and Applications Center (SEDAC): sedac.ciesin.columbia.edu/data/collection/epi.
