Indonesia's environmental sustainability is considered poor on a global scale, and even within the Asia-Pacific region. This is recorded in the *Environmental Performance Index 2022* (EPI) report.

The EPI measures the environmental sustainability of countries using dozens of indicators grouped into three main pillars:

* Environmental Health: Air quality, water pollution, waste management quality, and so on.
* Climate: Climate change mitigation policies, greenhouse gas emissions, and so on.
* Ecosystem Vitality: Biodiversity quality, sustainability of fisheries, agriculture, water resources, and so on.

The data used by the EPI comes from international organizations, research institutions, academics, and government agencies. Most of this data has been third-party audited.

"Generally, we do not accept raw data from governments," the report states.

The EPI then processes the data related to the above indicators into a score on a scale of 0-100. The higher the score, the better the environmental sustainability is considered, and vice versa.

Indonesia received a score of 28.2 out of 100. This score places Indonesia at 164th out of 180 countries researched.

Regionally, Indonesia's position is also among the lowest. Indonesia ranks 22nd out of 25 Asia-Pacific countries, or 8th out of 10 ASEAN countries.

In this report, Indonesia received low scores across all indicators, with a detailed breakdown of 34.1 for ecosystem vitality, 25.3 for environmental health, and 23.2 for climate change mitigation policies out of 100.

The EPI states that low scores are received by countries that prioritize economic growth over environmental sustainability.

High scores, on the other hand, are achieved by countries with a commitment to performance and long-term investment in preserving biodiversity, maintaining natural resources, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
