Sustainability: Other Indicators

Description

This lecture by the instructor covers the assessment of sustainability conditions, including total wealth per capita, natural capital per capita, and indicators for wealth components. It also delves into ecological footprint methods, equivalence factors, yield factors, and the computation of a country's biocapacity. The comparison of ecological footprint to biocapacity, flows of appropriated production, and global footprint evolution are discussed. Furthermore, the lecture explores ecological deficits/reserves, countries with biocapacity reserves/deficits, and Earth Overshoot Day. The presentation concludes with an analysis of country footprints measured by overshoot, highlighting the importance of understanding the ecological impact of human activities.
