The Yale Center for Environmental Law and Policy (YCELP) and the Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) in Colombia developed an Index on Environmental Protection called the Environment Protection Index (EPI).
This index assesses 178 countries in the world and ranks according to the Index. The Environmental Protection Index (EPI) includes 20 Indicators consisting of Air Quality, Water, Habitat Protection as well as environmental impacts on the health of the population. In 2016, EPI has released a list of countries that have high Air Quality, Water, Habitat Protection. Which country?

Because Denmark is in the northern hemisphere, the length of day and night varies. In winter the sun rises at 09.00, and sets at 16.00, while in the summer the sun rises at 02.15, and sets at 22.00. So while in Denmark, at 10 o'clock you can still see the sun!
