Pillars
Comparative
The general rankings tab reveals the efficiency of the examined
economies relative to one another and aggregates scores generated
throughout the next 4 pillars: ocean surroundings, marine exercise,
expertise innovation, and coverage and regulation.
This pillar ranks every nation in keeping with its ranges of
marine water contamination, its plastic recycling efforts, the
CO2 emissions of its marine actions (relative to the scale
of its economic system), and the latest change of whole emissions.
This pillar ranks every nation on the sustainability of its
marine actions, together with transport, fishing, and guarded
areas.
This pillar ranks every nation on its contribution to ocean
sustainable expertise analysis and growth, together with
expenditure, patents, and startups.
This pillar ranks every nation on its stance on ocean
sustainability-related coverage and regulation, together with
national-level insurance policies, taxes, charges, and subsidies, and the
implementation of worldwide marine legislation.

Methodology: The Blue Know-how Barometer 2022/23
Now in its second yr, the Blue Know-how Barometer assesses and ranks how every of the world’s largest
maritime economies promotes and develops blue (marine-centered) applied sciences that assist reverse the impression of
local weather change on ocean ecosystems, and the way they leverage ocean-based assets to cut back greenhouse gases and
different results of local weather change.
To construct the index, MIT Know-how Overview Insights compiled 20 quantitative and qualitative information indicators
for 66 nations and territories with coastlines and maritime economies. This included evaluation of choose
datasets and first analysis interviews with international blue expertise innovators, policymakers, and
worldwide ocean sustainability organizations. By means of development evaluation, analysis, and a consultative
peer-review course of with a number of subject material specialists, weighting assumptions have been assigned to find out the
relative significance of every indicator’s affect on a rustic’s blue expertise management.
These indicators measure how every nation or territory’s financial and maritime industries have affected its
marine surroundings and the way rapidly they’ve developed and deployed applied sciences that assist enhance ocean
well being outcomes. Coverage and regulatory adherence elements have been thought of, notably the observance of
worldwide treaties on fishing and marine safety legal guidelines.
The symptoms are organized into 4 pillars, which consider metrics round a sustainability theme. Every
indicator is scored from 1 to 10 (10 being the perfect efficiency) and is weighted for its contribution to its
respective pillar. Every pillar is weighted to find out its significance within the total rating. As these analysis
efforts middle on nations growing blue expertise to advertise ocean well being, the expertise pillar is
ranked highest, at 50% of the general rating.
The 4 pillars of the Blue Know-how Barometer are:
Carbon emissions ensuing from maritime actions and their relative development. Metrics on this pillar additionally
assess every nation’s efforts to mitigate ocean air pollution and improve ocean ecosystem well being.
Efforts to advertise sustainable fishing actions and improve and keep marine protected areas.
Progress in fostering the event of sustainable ocean applied sciences throughout a number of related fields:
- Clear innovation scores from MIT Know-how Overview Insights’ Inexperienced Future Index 2022.
- A tally of maritime-relevant patents and expertise startups.
- An evaluation of every economic system’s use of applied sciences and tech-enabled processes that facilitate ocean
sustainability.
Dedication to signing and imposing worldwide treaties to advertise ocean sustainability and implement
sustainable fishing.
