Ecological footprint From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. An ecological footprint is the measure of how much land and water area a human population needs to produce the resources required to sustain itself and to absorb its wastes, given prevailing technology. The term, coined by Canadian ecologist William Rees and Matthis Wackernagel, is used as a resource management and community planning tool. Contents Ecological footprint analysis Changing consumption patterns Criticisms References ... edit Ecological footprint analysis Ecological footprint analysis approximates the amount of arable and agriculturally or ecologically productive land area it takes to sustain one human or group of humans, say in a family or city , based on their use of energy food water building material and other consumables . It is a way of determining relative consumption for the purpose of educating people about their resource use and, sometimes, triggering them to change how they consume. It can be combined with overpopulation concerns and stated as "the number of Earths it would take to support every human living exactly the way you do." Ecological footprints have been used to argue that current lifestyles are not

Could you venture to describe a model of a multinational corporation that deserves to be called a good corporate citizen in environmental matters? Rajendra K. Pachauri: A good transnational corporation that is sensitive on environmental matters is one that ensures that wherever it operates it takes care of the natural resources around that particular location. I find that a number of organizations leave a large footprint on the ecology of a particular region. In several parts of the world the environment has been degraded, it has been destroyed. And I think if a company can help to rebuild the ecological resources in a particular location, it would have enormous benefits for everyone. It seems to me this would not be a very high-cost exercise. The emphasis there is on rebuilding after destruction.

Contact us Industrial ecology and sustainable energy Industrial ecology and sustainable energy Philosophy and ethics of technology Optimisation techniques for sustainable production This research is focused on modelling product-process chains with respect to sustainability-related topics, particularly reuse/recycling related problems, and sustainable industrial parks. There is an emphasis on quantitative analysis and the application of mathematical programming techniques. This is complementary to other work of the same researchers, in which application of techniques from systems and control theory is investigated. Eco-industrial parks The main emphasis of this research is on the enhancement of sustainability of industrial parks, by means of (1) the exchange of materials and energy flows, (2) the efficient use of surface area and (3) the clustering of activities. Although the focus is om quantitative analysis of materials- and energy flows, this is embedded in a context of organisatorial, town and country planning, and other relevant aspects. Sustainable waste water treatment systems The project is aimed at gaining insight in sustainability-related aspects of the various wastewater treatment systems. A method is developed for optimisation and comparison of a large number of such systems simultaneously. A methodological framework is developed, based on LCA, but extended with economic, social, and technological sustainability aspects. Based on an inventor, mathematical models of these technologies are formulated, subsequently a selection is carried out that is based on optimalisation calculations. This will provide us with more insight on the achievable sustainability level of waste water treatment plants.

Home About Founder Contact ... Submit Article Counter Began: Feb.22,2003. Last Updated: Fall 2005 "Through the Bagelhole" Bagelhole.org is about creating and living the vision of the life we want for ourselves and for the whole planet: A life that is sustainable with ecological integrity, full of love, respect, abundance, artistic expression, healing, and freedom, which allows, promotes, and shares the incredible diversity that already exists. Almost the exact opposite of how the world seems to be today. How do we go about this? Lets start with ourselves, our home, our neighborhood, and work outward. By utilizing the internet we can share our successes and ideas with one another to facilitate building a low (or high) tech, self-sustainable infrastructure to hedge against future collapse to create the possibility of shifting the paradigm from competition to cooperation in a non-violent way. This website is for that purpose and the more people who participate the more effective it will be. I would like to mention that in the past we have promoted "vertical aquaponics" as a cutting edge way to grow food. However, after a good deal of experimentation, we are going to have to admit it hasn't really worked well. The main problem being that the fish excrement in the water hasn't enough nutrients for the plants, so if one wishes to try to do it, a compost tea is suggested or the use of soil for holding the plants. The fish water could be run through this.

Restoration Ecology and Sustainable Development Edited by Krystyna M. Urbanska, Nigel R. Webb, Peter J. Edwards Cambridge University Press 2000 Paperback 352 pp, 75 diags, 9 illus, 3 colour plates ISBN 0521337283 The problem of ecosystem damage is international; a recent estimate suggests that 43% of the earth's terrestrial surface has a reduced capacity to supply benefits to humanity because of recent direct impacts of land use. The discipline of restoration ecology aims to provide a scientifically sound basis for the reconstruction of degraded or destroyed ecosystems and to produce self-supporting systems which are, to some degree, resilient to subsequent damage. This book looks at the main issues with a broad perspective, using case studies where appropriate and considering the economic and social context in which restoration is carried out. It is essential to reverse current trends by developing and using our knowledge of how to restore ecosystems. The book is therefore important for scientists, professionals in ecological restoration, landscape architects and environmental engineers, and more generally for those involved in sustainable development.

Conclusions Sustainable development Sustainable development is arguably the central issue of our time. Its basic aim is to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Support for this goal is now widespread. Following extensive consultation with all community sectors, Australian governments adopted in 1992 a National Strategy for Ecologically Sustainable Development (ESD). The strategy defines ESD as a pattern of development that improves the total quality of life, both now and in the future, in a way that maintains the ecological processes on which life depends. One of the functions of this report is to assess progress towards the goal of ecological sustainability (see the box on page 10 for more details about the approach taken in the report, including its objectives). Information needs State of the Environment reporting is an important step in the essential process of refining the knowledge base on which decisions about the environment are made. That base is currently inadequate. For example, while we believe that more than 90 per cent of vertebrates and higher plants in Australia are identified and described, it is estimated that only about 50 per cent of the invertebrates and simpler plants are identified. We know even less about other species such as fungi and bacteria. With such limited knowledge, it is impossible to assess the impact of human activity on biodiversity - a critical aspect of ecosystem health and resilience.

@import url("../stylesheets/explore_adv.css"); Fact sheets Back to Explore Back to Fact Sheets Ecological Sustainability Points covered: What is sustainability and Ecologically Sustainable Development? What are the conditions for sustainability? What should we sustain? What is the situation in Australia? Sustainability is the term used to describe developments that meet the needs of today without compromising the ability to meet the needs of tomorrow. Ecologically Sustainable Development (ESD) is a term which applies to every aspect of living in a sustainable way. There are three broad conditions for sustainability: renewable resources, such as timber and fish, should be used no faster than they are able to be renewed. non-renewable resources like coal and oil should only be used within the rate of substitution by alternatives. wastes should only be produced within the ability to process or assimilate them. The most important things we should sustain are healthy, functioning ecosystems and their species. Not only do they provide us with life-support services such as food, water and oxygen, they also nourish us aesthetically and spiritually. Furthermore, they have their own right to exist without the threat of human destruction. However, at present, we are not living sustainably in Australia; our farming practices cause erosion, salinisation and acidification of soils, and river pollution. This means that food production is not sustainable with current methods. As well, farming, mining, logging, urban expansion and recreation are destroying biodiversity and natural habitats.

He cops to the environmentalist part, while separating himself from "those protest fools, who don't get the first thing about what it takes to build a road or a business, either one." "The organic path is the right game at the right time," he said. "It's fully consistent with true conservatism. I can build a business that lets me make payments on my land. And it's truly sustainable. This way, we'll be able to feed more people for a much longer time."

What is "Sustainability"? "Sustainability . . . implies that the overall level of diversity and overall productivity of components and relations in systems are maintained or enhanced." - Richard Norgaard, 1988 "Sustainability requires at least a constant stock of natural capital, construed as the set of all environmental assets." - David Pearce, 1988 "Sustainability is the [emerging] doctrine that economic growth and development must take place, and be maintained over time, within the limits set by ecology in the broadest senseby the interrelations of human beings and their works, and the biosphere... It follows that environmental protection and economic development are complementary rather than antagonistic processes." - William D. Ruckelshaus - Scientific American, September 1989 "Sustainability is the ability of a system to sustain the livelihood of the people who depend on that system for an indefinite period." - Otto Soemarwoto, 1991 "Sustainability is the fundamental root metaphor that can oppose the notion of continued exponential material growth." - Ernest Callenbach, 1992

In slightly more than a decade, the World Wide Web has gone from the idea of an obscure English scientist to a consumer- oriented technology system with an expected one billion users by 2005. The technologies that enable this to happen are advancing rapidly, which is leading to both an unprecedented number of start-up companies and a host of innovative new alliances between companies. The growth has been so rapid and unexpected that little research and analysis has yet been done on what impact this transformation has had or will have on the ability of companies to meet the global sustainability challenge.
