MEA 100 Lecture 8: Ecological Footprint
Document Summary
It would take 3. 2 planet earth"s to provide enough resources for everyone in the world to live as. It also takes 14. 4 global acres to support my type of lifestyle. Most of these acres are taken up by land needed for energy, like factories or electrical wires, and forest land, for the trees, and other resources. The rest is smaller stuff such as land for the animals, or for planting crops. But, if i were to make all of the changes listed, then it would only take 2. 9 earth"s to sustain my lifestyle, from the original 3. 2. I can definitely try to incorporate most of these changes into the way that i live, but some of them might have to wait. My family was planning on taking a cruise around the caribbean to belize and honduras over christmas, so that change would have to be put off for a little while.
