#' Environmental Sustainability Index 2005
#'
#' This dataset comes from the 2005 Environmental Sustainability Index:
#' Benchmarking National Environmental Stewardship.  Countries are given an
#' overall sustainability score as well as scores in each of several different
#' environmental areas.
#'
#' ESI and Component scores are presented as standard normal percentiles.
#' Indicator scores are in the form of z-scores. See Appendix A of the report
#' for information on the methodology and Appendix C for more detail on
#' original data sources.
#'
#' For more information on how each of the indices were calculated, see the
#' documentation linked below.
