Chartporn has a beautiful chart displaying several environmental indicators with color coded trends. To summarize, we have become more energy efficient, taken advantage of renewable energy, less consumption of CFCs, more forest cover, more access to freshwater and sanitation, and better governance. However, we are still failing our climate, have less biodiversity, continue to consume more HCFCs and Methyl Bromide, harvest more of our forests and devastate the earth’s oceanic health. It still is a long road ahead.
