The Little Data Book on Climate Change 2011-ISBN: 9780821389591

The little data book on climate change includes a diverse set of indicators selected from the global economic and scientific communities. These indicators recognize the intrinsic relationship between climate change and development and attempt to synthesize important aspects of current and projected climate conditions, exposure to climate impacts, resilience, greenhouse gas emissions, and the current state of efforts to take action. The little data book on climate change draws upon several online resources, including the open data website, the climate change knowledge portal, and the open data for resilience initiative. These resources from the World Bank and the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR) provide free and open access to data and information relevant to climate risk, climate change, and development at the international, national and subnational levels. These resources contain many more indicators than are available in the limited space of this book and include interactive tools, visualizations on the use and interpretation of the data. In addition, there are other tools that will help users and programmers access World Bank data and develop applications.

We invite you to visit the online companions to the Little Data Book on Climate Change. In the coming months, we will continue to add to the datasets. We welcome suggestions on how we can improve these resources for everyone.

Andrew Steer Director Special Envoy for Climate Change Development Data Group World Bank Group The data in this book are for the most recent year available. Regional aggregates include data for low-and middle-income economies only. No aggregate is calculated if missing data exceed specific thresholds by indicator. See Statistical methods in World Development Indicators 2011 for more information.
Symbols used: 0 or 0.0 indicates zero or small enough that the number rounds to zero at the displayed number of decimal places.
.. indicates that data are not available.
n/a or blank indicates not applicable, or for an aggregate, not analytically meaningful.
Data are shown for economies with populations greater than 30,000 or for smaller economies if they are members of the World Bank. This publication also includes three additional economies: Cook Islands, Nauru, and Niue. The word country (used interchangeably with economy) does not imply political independence or official recognition by the World Bank but refers to any economy for which the authorities report separate social or economic statistics.
