African climate change policy performance index

The African Climate Change Policy Performance Index (ACCPPI) evaluates and assesses countries and regions in Africa in terms of their climate change policy performance. The ranking is based on four key scores which are: the greenhouse emissions score (30%), the renewable energy score (25%), the clim...
