The FEEM Sustainability Index is the first aggregate index able to provide future projections of sustainability of countries, allowing for comparisons not only across countries, but also through time. Built from a selection of over-arching indicators, the index manages to condense the information included in each of its components, using a novel aggregation methodology that exploits all the interactions across indicators. Please visit the dedicated website to calculate the index for different countries, in different years, and see how the world countries sustainability ranking varies over time and under different policy assumptions. </font></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td><img src="http://www.feem.it/UserFiles/feemnews/2009.06/images/spacer.gif"/></td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="http://www.feem.it/getpage.aspx?id=2560&sez=For%20the%20media&padre=41&sub=22" target="_blank" style="text-decoration:none;"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#004980" size="2"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#004980" size="2"><strong>The "Personal Carbon Footprint" among TIME's picks for the best 50 breakthrough ideas of the year</strong><br> Negotiations over carbon emissions resemble the end of a Quentin Tarantino film, when everyone has a gun pointed at everyone else and no one can make a move. Rich nations (like the U.S.) need to make the first cuts, but they won't until developing nations (like China) do  and vice versa. Researchers from FEEM and Princeton University suggest working on the individual level instead. It's the well-off people of the world  in Indiana or India  who are responsible for most carbon emissions.
