Concept information
Preferred term
environmental footprinting
Definition
- Ecological or environmental footprinting has its roots in an integrated response to two questions, both of which have arisen from a growing awareness that current patterns and scales of consumer culture are destructive of underpinning natural systems. First, what are the implications of a given level of consumption in terms of its environmental impact? Second, where should the environmental limits to that consumption lie? The following is an introduction to footprinting concepts, from their beginning to the present day. [Source: Encyclopedia of Consumer Culture; Environmental Footprinting]
