This entails adjusting the Net National Income and Net Savings indicators for depletion of natural capital using national data. The Changing Wealth of Nations project has compiled Adjusted Net National Income (national income adjusted for natural capital depletion) and Adjusted Net Savings (net savings adjusted for depletion of natural capital and investment in human capital) as well as Comprehensive Wealth (including produced, natural and human capital) using global data. Under the project, datasets for 146 countries have been compiled, using country data reported to IMF and the World Bank whenever available and estimating missing data. The global datasets are mainly meant to be used for global and regional comparisons and may not be accurate enough to use at the country level. For that purpose, it is important to estimate the indicators using national data. Show less
