Work Out Your Eco Footprint工作了你的生态足迹

March 6th, 2007 · by David Bradley 2007年3月6日,大卫布拉德利

I don’t know if I should be pleased or not.我不知道如果我应该感到高兴或不。 I just carried out the我只是进行了 Earthday earthday ecological footprint生态足迹 survey调查 and discovered that if everyone lived like me we’d need 1.9 Earths.和发现,如果每个人都像我一样住我们需要1.9地球。 Now, that implies that I’m living well beyond the Earth’s means.现在,这意味着我的生活远远超出了地球的手段。 In terms of food, I’d need 1.5 global hectares, 0.2 for mobility, 1.1 for shelter, 0.7 for goods and services and my total footprint would be 3.5.在粮食,我要需要1.5全球公顷, 0.2为流动性, 1.1为住房, 0.7货物和服务的和我的足迹,共将3.5 。 That said, the average ecological footprint in the UK is 5.3 global hectares per person, whereas worldwide there are just 1.8 biologically productive global hectares per person.尽管如此,平均生态足迹,在英国是5.3全球公顷,每人,而全世界有刚才1.8生物生产力的全球公顷每人。

That sounds terrible, of course, but compared with the dozens of other Westerners who have taken the test I fare rather well, others have reported values double that and one person claims even to need 29.6 earths!听起来很可怕,当然,但与几十个其他西方人谁所采取的测试i票价相当好,别人有报道价值的一倍,和一个人的索赔,甚至需要29.6地球! Most of those surveyed who live in India claimed we’d only need 1 earth if everyone lived in the manner to which they have become accustomed.大部分的受访者谁住在印度声称,我们愿意只需要一地球如果每个人都住在该地,他们已成为习惯。 I don’t think any of this is particularly serious, and I’m certainly not going to bother picking apart the significant figures in the hectare values, but it does raise awareness and if you find you’re using too many earths, it might be time to reconsider your priorities.我不认为任何,这是特别严重的,我当然不会理会采摘,除了显着的数字,在该公顷的价值观,但它确实提高认识,如果您发现您所使用的太多,土壤,它可能时间,重新考虑您的优先次序。
