About EEA indicators

The indicators maintained by the European Environment Agency are listed below in chronological order (the most recently updated indicators on top). The EEA indicators are designed to answer key policy questions and to support all phases of environmental policy making, from designing policy frameworks to setting targets, and from policy monitoring and evaluation to communicating to policy-makers and the public.

More information on indicators, including definitions of the thematic sets of indicators managed by the EEA, is available on the About indicators page.
