Global Climate & Environment Indicators
The climate and environment scorecard for every country on Earth in one clean Parquet: CO2 and total greenhouse-gas emissions per capita, renewable electricity share, energy intensity of the economy, PM2.5 air pollution, freshwater withdrawal stress, and forest & agricultural land cover - pulled from the World Bank and flattened to one row per country × indicator × year since 2000. Worldwide coverage (not just Europe), the backbone of any cross-country ESG, climate-risk or transition analysis.

Safe to train on
Built only from a named, redistributable official source under a documented open licence - not scraped web data. No copyright grey zone, no personal data. Ships machine-readable Croissant metadata (ML Commons - loads in Hugging Face / Kaggle / Google), an AI training-licence manifest documenting source, licence and provenance for your model's data governance, and a machine-readable data dictionary (drop it into an agent / RAG prompt so the model knows every column) - all inspectable before you buy.
What's included
- 8 climate & environment indicators - CO2 & total-GHG/capita, renewable electricity, energy intensity, PM2.5, freshwater stress, forest, farmland
- Every country worldwide (not just Europe), annual, 2000-present
- The cross-country backbone for ESG, climate-risk and energy-transition analysis
- One row per country × indicator × year; joins to macro/energy on ISO3 country code
