Abstract

The Kyoto Protocol, the Copenhagen Summit and other World Forums have focused on policies to address global warming, biodiversity and other sustainability issues. A variety of composite indexes has been proposed to examine the sustainability status and environmental stewardship in many different nations. This paper examines a broad spectrum of these composite indexes: Inclusive Wealth Index, Environmental Performance Index, Sustainability Adjusted Global Competitiveness Index (World Economic Forum), Global Sustainability Competitiveness Index (SolAbility), Climate Change Performance Index, Social Progress Index and Global Green Economy Index to investigate their contribution to achieving sustainable development. This analysis enables us to identify appropriate policy directions based on these indexes and current technologies.

可持续发展与环境管理:选择综合指数的实证分析

《京都议定书》、哥本哈根峰会和其他世界论坛都把重点放在解决全球变暖、生物多样性和其他可持续性问题的政策上。在许多不同的国家，已经提出了各种综合指数来检查可持续性状况和环境管理。本文考察了这些综合指数的广泛范围:包容性财富指数、环境绩效指数、可持续性调整全球竞争力指数(世界经济论坛)、全球可持续性竞争力指数(可解决性)、气候变化绩效指数、社会进步指数和全球绿色经济指数，以调查它们对实现可持续发展的贡献。这种分析使我们能够根据这些指标和现有技术确定适当的政策方向。
