3. Were there any differences between the two ecological footprint results from the two websites. If so, please explain.
4. Please go to the below website; and list 5 countries with the highest available biocapacity and list 5 countries with the greatest biocapacity deficits. Discuss a few reasons why these countries have a such a large biocapacity deficit.
Helpful information for this question:
The ecological footprint is a metric that measures human demand on natural capital or the quantity of nature it takes to support a given population or economy. The ecological footprint is the demand on and the supply of nature.
Biocapacity is the capacity of a given biologically productive area to generate a supply of renewable resources and to absorb its wastes.
