The human development index (HDI) uses multiple factors including health, education, and poverty to compare the development of countries. only considers resource use and income from trade to describe development. with a score of zero means no problems in health, education, or other quality of life indicators. is a measurement of environmental degradation of a country. considers GDP per person as a measure of wealth of the country and its development. 0000
