The EEA32 country grouping includes EEA31 member countries + Croatia.

Distance-to-target for EEA member countries

The 'distance to target' results are shown in light yellow (countries need to do more to be on track to meet their ceiling in 2010) and green (countries are on track to meet their ceiling in 2010)
