The Half-Earth Project National Report Card

Solving planetary problems requires a planetary solution — and every part of society has to work together to make it happen. Conservation also advances at the ground level, and local progress informs future decisions. The National Report Cards, released in 2020 and updated annually, have reached thousands of people via the Half-Earth Project Map. Our new website features a summary of each country’s report card, and users can explore and compare countries at a basic level. Report cards also direct advanced users to the map, where detailed analysis tools include both a Species Protection Index Score and a Marine Species Protection Index Score, visualizations that track progress over time, and other data filters. Map users can create a custom analysis of their area of interest to reveal terrestrial vertebrate species, species range, protection status, and human pressures.
