Description: The 2016 EPI builds on measures relevant to the goal of reducing the loss or degradation of ecosystems and natural resources, which are grouped into one objective category named ecosystem vitality. Ecosystem vitality scores are based on six constituent policy categories: water resources, agriculture, forests, fisheries, biodiversity and habitat, and climate and energy. The biodiversity and habitat category includes the following indicators: marine protected areas, terrestrial biome protection (global and national), and species protection (global and national). All indicators and composite indices in the EPI are normalized as a 0–100 proximity-to-target score, with 100 representing "at target" and 0 being furthest from the target. The Environmental Performance Index, 2016 Release (1950-2016) data set is part of the Environmental Performance Index (EPI) collection.
