Description: The 2016 EPI builds on measures relevant to the goal of reducing environmental stresses to human health, which are grouped into one policy objective named environmental health. The goal of improving environmental health is divided into three policy categories: health impacts, air quality, and water and sanitation. The air quality category includes the following indicators: household air quality, air pollution average exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) air pollution fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exceedance and air pollution average exposure to nitrogen dioxide (NO2). 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.
