This is useless. How am I supposed to know units of measurements? I'm just going to assume this is percentage.

What does this mean? Percentage protected area or what?
Kim Monaghan

Most of your stats do not have the meta data associated with them to make any sense of them. What does "10" mean for protected areas? The definition says "Environmentally Protected Areas" but does not give units. Seems like a great website but stats are useless without meta data.
