This new GGEI is a data-driven assessment of how 80 countries and 50 cities perform in the global green economy, as well as how experts evaluate that performance. The GGEI is unique because it provides an integrated view of national green performance, highlighting how the environment, investment, green innovation and efficiency sectors like buildings, transport and energy can be improved to achieve sustainable development goals (SDGs) and emission reduction targets like the ones set at the recent COP21. The perceptions captured through the GGEI are also valuable, showing where green growth opportunities are recognized globally, and where they are being missed. Access the new GGEI by clicking here. The 2016 GGEI is being published as the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) takes place. As new and ambitious SDGs have been defined, data-driven frameworks like the GGEI are more vital than ever. "The GGEI is a useful framework for leaders to communicate the big picture standing of their national green economies, where progress has been made, and where greater focus will be required to achieve global goals related to sustainable development," said Jeremy Tamanini, publisher of the GGEI and founder of consultancy, Dual Citizen LLC.
