es 12
Buenaventura, Patty
Jardin, Sam
Naredo, Eugenia
Peña, Pia July 9, 2007
Robinson, Victor ES 12 Section A Ms. Favis
1. Earth’s Total Landmass : 148.94 million sq km
Estimated World Population : 6.6 billion
Amount of area alloted for each individual : .00257 sq. km / 1.73 x 10 ^ -9 %
Patty Buenaventura :
122.5 / 10 = 11.25
7.6 x 10 ^ -6 % of the earth’s total land area
Sam Jardin :
7.6 / 3 = 5.87
3.9 x 10 ^ -6 % of the earth’s total land area
Eugenia Naredo :
6.0 / 7 = .86
5.77 x 10 ^ -7 % of the earth’s total land area
Pia Peña :
7.7 / 4 = 1.93
1.29 x 10 ^ -6 % of the earth’s total land area
Victor Robinson :
7.7 / 3 = 2.57
1.72 x 10^ -6 of the earth’s total land area
Based from the data above, we therefore conclude that we occupy more than the total amount allotted for each person in this world.
2. Patty Buenaventura has the biggest footprint and Pia Peña has the smallest footprint. The group deems that the number of people in the household plays a big part in determining a person’s ecological footprint.
3. Overall, the collated spreadsheets showed that Food, Services and Waste categories account for the highest estimate of consumption. Food and Services are necessary for survival because these goods are part of the basic needs of any individual; Food because it sustains life, Services assists human activities. Waste category is inevitable but highly unnecessary because it only contributes to the rubbish.
4. Sustainable development is the fulfillment of balance between human needs and protection of the environment. Our lifestyles are not sustainable because the combined data shows that aside from the normal consumption of Food and Services, Waste is also included in those that contributes to the highest result.
5. The best possible solution to make our lifestyles more sustainable is for us to rid ourselves of unnecessary consumption. By doing so, we use less of the earth’s resources; limiting ourselves to only what we need and lessen the production of waste.
