Web sites with information about environmental indicators.

U.S. EPA Environmental Indicators - These reports attempt to answer a series of key questions using the best available indicators and scientifically sound data to describe what EPA knows - and what it doesn't know - about the current state of the nation's environment. In addition, the reports highlight the information gaps and challenges that must be addressed in order to better answer key questions in the future.

The New South Wales State of the Environment 2006 Report - The 2006 report is broadly based on the pressure state response (PSR) framework developed by the OECD. The New South Wales State of the Environment 2006 report is divided into five chapters: four exploring the main environmental media of atmosphere, land, water and biodiversity; and a fifth chapter which provides an overview and a summary of progress towards sustainability.

OECD Environmental Indicators - The OECD uses environmental indicators to keep track of environmental progress; to ensure integration of environmental concerns into sectional policies (e.g. transport, energy and agriculture); to ensure integration of environmental concerns into economic policies; to help determine whether countries are on track towards sustainable development.

World Bank Environmental and Economic Indicators - Environmental indicator initiatives within the World Bank.

Energy Information Administration Environmental Indicators - Statistics on estimated emissions of greenhouse gases, carbon dioxide emissions from energy consumption, methane emissions, nitrous oxide emissions, emissions from energy consumption for electricity generation and installed capacity of generators with environmental equipment from the 2006 Annual Energy Review.
