Estonia tops the Global Suitainability Ranking according to the latest Environmental Index, a global assessment by Yale and Columbus measuring countries’ environmental performance.
The biennial Environment Performance Index assesses 177 countries across climate, biodiversity and environmental health indicators.
The Baltic country with plans and strategies driven by aggressive reductions in power-generation emissions, scaling of renewable energy, and strong biodiversity protection ranked first after reduicing greenhouse gas emissions from electricity production while expanding renewable energy aiming to meet its annual electricity demand with renewable energy by 2030 and also earned recognition for protecting biodiversity.
Estonia scored 75 out of 100 highlighting continued challenges despite leading the rankings. Researchers said most countries remain off track to achieve net – zero emissions by 2050 and warned that further policies will be needed to accelerate global emissions reductions.
