London has been named the second most sustainable major city in the world by a new report, beaten only by Frankfurt.

The Sustainable Cities Index assessed 50 urban areas across the world based on their economic (Profit), social (People) and environmental (Planet) characteristics.

These are the top 10 most sustainable cities in the world:

1. Frankfurt

2. London

3. Copenhagen

4. Amsterdam

5. Rotterdam

6. Berlin

7. Seoul

8. Hong Kong

9. Madrid

10. Singapore

Notable others:

The three sub-indices each city was measured on can be further broken down into the following indicators:

Profit - business performance, transport infrastructure, ease of doing business, the city’s importance in global economic networks, property and living costs, GDP per capita and energy efficiency.

People - transport infrastructure, health, education, income inequality, work-life balance, the dependency ratio and green spaces.

Planet - energy consumption and renewable energy share, recycling rates, greenhouse gas emissions, natural catastrophe risk, drinking water, sanitation and air pollution.
