The Environmental Index Score of 1 out of 1 is due to all of the indicators from all of the Optimal Conditions currently operating being within the acceptable range.
Overall we combine all the Optimal Conditions and their indicators to rank how many we believe are acceptable vs how many are not performing well to give us an overall “Environment Index Score”
As data becomes available and other Indicators across other environmental Optimal Conditions are entered into the model, we will see more bars on this chart and the Environment Index is expected to change.
