The report scores countries on things like: Target emissions reduction percentage for 2030HE railway use, Consumption percentages from solar energy, hydroelectricity or nuclear energydifference between years electric vehicle sales or stringency of environmental policies.

Researchers reveal nations making most impressive advances promotion of ecological habits By looking at various factors such as which countries use the most renewable energy and their sales electric vehicles And solar panels.

Moreover, they shed light on the nations. innovative environmentally friendly strategies is at the forefront of global consciousness.

Sweden is the most sustainable

SwedenTurkey, one of the most sustainable countries in the world, ranked first in the overall ranking of the study. According to researchers, “several low emissions programs Implementation of carbon dioxide and strong renewable energy programs that contribute to the country’s goal of moving away from fossil fuels and operating exclusively on 100% renewable energy by 2045.”

Finlandhas a solid reputation as A leader in environmental policy and sustainable developmentIt ranked second with aspects such as the country’s commitment to be carbon neutral by 2035, the high rate represented by the country’s renewable energy sources, and the struggle to become carbon neutral. reduce industrial emissions and protect biodiversity.

GermanyAs determined by this study, it is the third greenest country in the world. The country’s Climate Protection Law set the following goal: Achieve greenhouse gas neutrality by 2045. It also has an ambitious goal to run on 100% green energy by 2035. world leader in recycling: More than 60% of their waste is used in the production of new products such as paper, glass or fuel.
