Environmental indicators are powerful tools that serve many purposes, useful as tools for performance evaluation and public information. Together with its member countries, the OECD has established a common approach and framework for developing, measuring and using environmental indicators: the OECD Core Set and its core environmental indicators (CEI); several sets of sectoral environmental indicators (SEI) (e.g. transport, energy); a small set of key environmental indicators (KEI).
Current work focuses on material flow analysis and related indicators.
