Government had alleged that 'weight of indicators in which the country was performing well has been reduced'

Calcutta: A senior researcher of the Yale Center for Environmental Law and Policy, which prepared the global Environmental Performance Index 2022 report that put India at the bottom of the 180 countries assessed, has defended its findings against criticism from the Indian government.

Martin Wolf, principal investigator of the report, rebutted the Indian environment, forest and climate change ministry’s allegation that the report was based on “unscientific methods (and) unfounded assumptions”.

“We are aware of the Indian government’s response to our report, and regret that they have decided to reject a useful data-driven tool instead of leveraging its findings to improve the environmental health of India,” Wolf told The Telegraph.

“Our team has carefully reviewed the ministry’s rebuttal to our analyses and rankings. The ministry would prefer (that) analyses like the EPI rank countries on their policy intentions rather than on the current state of environmental conditions,” the Yale scientist said.
