Your Eco-Footprint

What is an Eco-Footprint?

An eco-footprints appear in daily life. Everything you do has an eco-footprint. They are how we measure the amount of Earth’s natural resources that humans use for food, shelter, goods, energy, and to absorb all of our waste. Eco-footprints matter because they are major contributors to climate change. Climate change is the change in our environment. Climate change happens naturally. However, natural climate change isn’t a problem because it is so slow. Now, humans have started contributing to climate change, and our environment is changing much faster than it should be. Climate change causes animals to go extinct, the ice in the Arctic to melt, the weather to become very drastic and unpredictable, and much more! Cutting down trees, major factories, and pollution all have a HUGE eco-footprint. Still, sometimes, the small things add up: driving your car, taking a shower, and wasting food are all smaller forms of eco-footprints, and they add up! If we minimize our own eco-footprint, it would majorly help the environment; If you have a larger eco-footprint, then you contribute more to climate change than people with a smaller eco-footprint
