Definitions of Key Concepts
Calculation Methodology for the National Footprint Accounts
Ecological Footprint Atlas
The Ecological Footprint is the area of land and water it takes for a human population to generate the renewable resources it consumes and to
absorb the corresponding waste it generates, using prevailing technology. In other words, it measures the "quantity of nature" that we use
and compares it with how much "nature" we have.
Cropland: Cropland is the most bioproductive of all the land-use types and consists of areas used to produce food and fibre for human
consumption, feed for livestock, oil crops, and rubber. The cropland Footprint includes crop products allocated to livestock and aquaculture
feed mixes, and those used for fibres and materials. Due to lack of globally consistent data sets, current cropland Footprint calculations do not
yet take into account the extent to which farming techniques or unsustainable agricultural practices may cause long-term degradation of soil.
Forest land: Forest land provides for two competing services: the forest product Footprint, which is calculated based on the amount of lumber,
pulp, timber products, and fuel wood consumed by a population on a yearly basis; and the carbon Footprint, which represents the carbon
dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels in addition to the embodied carbon in imported goods. The carbon Footprint component is
represented by the area of forest land required to sequester these carbon emissions. Currently, the carbon Footprint is the largest portion of
humanity’s Footprint.
Fishing grounds: The fishing grounds Footprint is calculated based on estimates of the maximum sustainable catch for a variety of fish species.
These sustainable catch estimates are converted into an equivalent mass of primary production based on the various species’ trophic levels.
This estimate of maximum harvestable primary production is then divided amongst the continental shelf areas of the world. Fish caught and
used in aquaculture feed mixes are included.
Grazing land: Grazing land is used to raise livestock for meat, dairy, hide, and wool products. The grazing land Footprint is calculated by
comparing the amount of livestock feed available in a country with the amount of feed required for all livestock in that year, with the
remainder of feed demand assumed to come from grazing land.
Built-up land: The built-up land Footprint is calculated based on the area of land covered by human infrastructure: transportation, housing,
industrial structures, and reservoirs for hydropower. Built-up land may occupy what would previously have been cropland.
What is Biocapacity?
Biocapacity serves as a lens, showing the capacity of biosphere to regenerate and provide for life. It allows researchers to add up the
competing human demands, which include natural resources, waste absorption, water renewal, and productive areas dedicated to urban uses.
As an aggregate, biocapacity allows us to determine how large the material metabolism of human economies is compared to what nature can
renew.
Because each unit of space harbours a different portion of the global regenerative capacity, each unit is counted proportional to its global
biocapacity share. For this reason, hectares are adjusted proportionally to their productivity and are expressed in global hectares. A global
hectare is a biologically productive hectare with world average productivity.

World Biocapacity in 1961
The essence of sustainable development can be measured by tracking its two core dimensions:
1) economic and social development
2) environmental sustainability
Economic and social development, or human well-being, can be approximated with UNDP’s widely recognized Human Development Index
(HDI). UNDP considers an HDI of more than 0.67 to be “high human development.” Environmental sustainability, or living within the means of
nature, can be evaluated with the Ecological Footprint. The HDI-Footprint graph above shows how a population's HDI compares to its resource
demand. The graph illustrates the challenge of creating a globally-reproducible high level of human well-being without overtaxing the planet’s
ecological resource base.
Note that the comparison against global average biocapacity provides a global overview. This approach can be further extended by comparing
Footprints also against local biocapacity. For most countries, local availability of biocapacity (and the financial means to access biocapacity
from elsewhere) is a more significant determinant of resource access than the global average.

NOTES:
World Footprint does not match sum of all countries for the following reasons: 1. Some carbon emissions are not allocated to individual countries 2. The grazing footprint for each country is subject to limitations that are inconsistent with the world
calculation 3. The built up land footprint uses different sources for some specific countries 4. The total does not include all countries. This inconsistency will be reconciled in the 2016 Edition.
Country grouping results are for included countries only
Unless otherwise noted, all data from Global Footprint Network, National Footprint Accounts 2015 Edition. For more information visit: www.footprintnetwork.org/atlas
HDI data are 2011 values from UNDP Human Development Reports, 2014
Number of Earths Required: This represents the number of planet Earths that would be required if everyone in the world lived the average lifestyle of a resident in this country.
Number of Countries Required: This represents how many times the country's biocapacity is needed in order to provide for the country's consumption Footprint.
Note that these numbers assume people use biocapacity fully. However, wild species also require biologically productive space. When subtracting a portion of biocapacity for wild species, the ratios get larger.

In signing the Non-Commercial Data Licensing Agreement for this Data Package, you have
agreed to comply with Global Footprint Network’s “Scientific & Editorial Review Policy” described
hereunder.
Global Footprint Network grants limited non-exclusive licenses for analyses, publication of
reports, papers, brochures, posters and tools such as calculators. As the Ecological Footprint is
used more widely both geographically and in terms of applications, it becomes increasingly
important to safeguard the accuracy and scientific integrity of the Footprint data and method. To
this end, any individual or entity that uses Global Footprint Network data is subject to the
following policy:
Any individual or entity wishing to use and/or publish thirty [30] data points or more of Ecological
Footprint and Biocapacity data will need to submit the proposed publications to Global Footprint
Network for a scientific and editorial review as follows before publishing or making such data
available to third parties or the public:
Global Footprint Network will conduct a scientific and editorial review of applicable
sections relating to Global Footprint Network data and graphs.
The review will not endeavor to change policy or other recommendations unless they are
not in line with what can be inferred from the work/analysis/data used for the publication.
The individual or entity must revise the publication accordingly, in accordance with the
comments and revisions put forth by Global Footprint Network.
Costs for this review will be paid by the individual or entity at the rate of up to 155
USD/hour.
The minimum amount of time for review is 3 days for English publications, 5 days for
other languages. The duration may be adjusted at Global Footprint Network’s discretion
depending on the length and scope of the publication.
The elements of a standard scientific and editorial review include the following:
Accuracy of the data and consistency with the National Footprint Accounts edition from
which the data is derived
Verification of compliance with the Global Footprint Network’s standards
That method, method descriptions and conclusions are correct and representative of the
data used
Global Footprint Network reserves the right to change this policy upon notice to you.
