Discussion: Unit 5

Instructions:

Find your ecological footprint using one of the calculators found in the Read Me First Section of the course.

Based on the findings, discuss:

• The findings of your footprint.
• Think about all facets of your life where you are a consumer of natural capital – food, transportation, clothing, and housing. Now think about all of the places where you have (or have been thinking about) reducing your use of natural capital at home. How you could reduce your footprint?
• What impact(s) does your footprint have on the environment?
