Developing State of the Environment Indicators in Croydon

Title: Developing State of the Environment Indicators in Croydon
Sponsor: London Borough of Croydon
Sponsor Liaison: Peter McDonald
Student Team: Emily Hartzell, Aren Johansen, Tom Liguori, Jennifer Ober
Abstract: The government in the United Kingdom removed the 2007 National Indicator Framework and instated budget cuts to local authorities. Still, Croydon’s Sustainable Development Service finds the annual production of the State of the Environment Report important to pursuing the borough’s environmental interests. This project proposes a cost efficient process for generating future editions of the Report. The process is consistent with practices of boroughs in England, and includes a workbook to store indicator data and templates to generate the report.
