- Human Development Index (HDI): A composite index measuring average achievement in three basic dimensions of human development—a long and healthy life, knowledge and a decent standard of living. Source: HDRO
- Number of deaths and missing persons attributed to disasters: Number of people who died during or directly after a disaster as a direct result of the event or whose whereabouts are unknown since the event, expressed per 100,000 population. Source: United Nations Statistics Division Global SDG Indicators Database. Note: The estimates of global, regional and Human Development Group averages for some years and groupings are based on limited cases.
- Mortality rate attributed to household and ambient air pollution: Number of deaths attributable to the joint effects of household and ambient air pollution, expressed per 100,000 population. Source: WHO. Global Health Observatory
- Forest area, change: Percentage change in area under forest cover. Source: HDRO calculations based on data from World Development Indicators database
- Red List Index: Measure of the aggregate extinction risk across groups of species. It is based on genuine changes in the number of species in each category of extinction risk on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species.

Notes for these Indicators:
- Carbon dioxide emissions, production emissions per capita: Total carbon dioxide emissions produced as a consequence of human activities, divided by midyear population. Values are territorial emissions, meaning that emissions are attributed to the country in which they physically occur. Source: Global Carbon Project. Global Carbon Atlas.
- Carbon dioxide emissions, consumption emissions per capita: Total carbon dioxide emissions produced as a consequence of human activities, divided by midyear population. Values are consumption emissions, meaning that emissions occurring anywhere in the world attributed to the country in which goods and services are consumed. Source: Global Carbon Project. Global Carbon Atlas. Note: The estimates of regional and Human Development Group averages for some years and groupings are based on limited cases.
- Carbon dioxide emissions, per unit of GDP: Human-originated carbon dioxide emissions stemming from the burning of fossil fuels, gas flaring and cement manufacture, expressed in kilograms per unit of gross domestic product (GDP) in constant 2010 US dollars. Source: United Nations Statistics Division. Global SDG Indicators Database. Note: The estimates of regional and Human Development Group averages for some years and groupings are based on limited cases.
- Renewable energy consumption: Share of renewable energy in total final energy consumption. Source: World Bank. World Development Indicators database.

Notes for these Indicators:
- Domestic material consumption per capita: The sum of direct imports of materials and domestic extraction of materials minus direct exports of materials, measured in tonnes, divided by midyear population. A territorial (production-side) indicator, domestic material consumption measures the total amount of materials used in economic processes. Source: United Nations Statistics Division. Global SDG Indicators Database.
- Material footprint per capita: Material footprint is the attribution of global material extraction to domestic final demand of a country. This indicator is calculated as raw material equivalent of imports plus domestic extraction minus raw material equivalents of exports. Per-capita material footprint describes the average material use for final demand. Source: United Nations Environment Programme. World Environment Situation Room, Data downloader.
- Use of fertilizer nutrient nitrogen (N), per area of cropland: Total agricultural use of fertilizer nutrient—nitrogen (N), expressed per area of cropland. Source: FAO. FAOSTAT database. Note: The estimates of regional averages for some years and groupings are based on limited cases.
- Electronic waste recycling rate: Defined as the quantity of material recycled in the country plus quantities exported for recycling out of total waste generated in the country, minus material imported intended for recycling.

Note: The estimates of global, regional and Human Development Group averages for some years and groupings are based on limited cases.
