SDI Inventory for Environmental Endowments
Each potential indicator measures a specific characteristic or feature of an element in the SDI Framework. Here, the elements for Environmental Endowments appear in simple outline form. Not all elements have indicators. To see indicators for those that do, click "View Potential Indicators."- Environmental Endowments
