Resource information
The Little Green Data Book 2004 is based
on the World Development Indicators 2004, and represents a
succinct collection of information. It is a collaboration
between the Development Economics Data Development Group,
and the Environment Department of the World Bank. Under the
headings of agriculture, forests, biodiversity, energy,
emissions and pollution, water and sanitation, and
'greener' national accounts, it presents key
indicators of the environment, and its relationship to
people, for more than 200 countries. Regional data include
only low- and middle-income economies. Aggregates for
regions and income groups are shown only if data are
available for 66 percent of the economies in that group. The
country composition of regions is based on the World
Bank's analytical regions, and may differ from common
geographic usage.
