Ecological Footprint

Different tools are used to measure different aspects of sustainability. An ecological footprint is one that measures the demand versus the supply of nature. How much is required for a population to support itself in the present without compromising that ability for the future.

This course explains what an ecological footprint is, how is it measured, what impact it has on the environment, and raises awareness on the pressures we exert on the planet. Find out all about how we can help reduce this environmental burden here.
