CCPI: Interesting international comparisons
from http://www.germanwatch.org/ccpi.htm :
"The Climate Change Performance Index (CCPI) is an innovative instrument that enhances transparency in international climate politics. On the basis of standardised criteria the index evaluates and compares the climate protection performances of the 56 countries that, together, are responsible for more than 90 percent of global energy-related CO2 emissions."
By weighting "Emissions Trends by sector" ("Target - Performance per capita emissions since 1990", energy, transport, residential, industry) @ 50%, "Emissions Level" @ 30%, "Climate Policy" @ 20%, Canada ranks a shameful 53rd of 56 (ahead of Saudi Arabia, U.S., Australia).
