The Ecological Footprint (EF) is a measure of the consumption of renewable natural resources by a human population. A country's EF is the total area of productive land or sea required to produce all the crops, eat, seafood, wood and fiber it consumes to sustain its energy consumption and to give space for its infrastructure.

According to the GLOBIO Scenario, by the year 2050, the impact from the human society on the ecosystems of the world will be severe. Our influences from construction, cities, and roads decreases the natural value and the biodiversity where we influence and put stress on the environment.
