What is an ecological footprint?
A persons ecological footprint is the measurement of how much we as humans impact and demand from Earth's ecological capacity. It looks at how much land and water area a human population requires to produce the resources it consumes.
- What is the estimate of your ecological footprint?
My estimate was about 7 hectares
- Why should we reduce our ecological footprint?
We need to stop consuming so much from the earth's land water otherwise it will all run out. We need to move towards a fair and sustainable future by consuming less, using resources more efficiently, recycling and thinking about nature before us.
- What is an interesting fact you learnt from using the calculator?
The average footprint for all people in the world is about 2.5 hectares
