Ecological footprints by country within region
All data is from the National Ecological Footprint and
Biocapacity Accounts, 2005 Edition,
which use data from 2002, and which are published on www.footprintnetwork.org
You can find an explanation of
ecological footprints and how they are calculated on the Global
Footprint Network website.
The ecological footprints of the Middle East/North Africa
countries
The average across Middle East and North Africa (fifteen countries) is
2.0 global hectares per person.
If everyone in the world had this footprint, currently we would need one
and one tenth planets to sustain us.
The ecological footprints of the
European countries
The average across the thirty European countries is 4.1 global hectares
per person.
If everyone in the world had this footprint, currently we would need two
and a quarter planets to sustain us.
