The Ecological Footprint however, is 4.5 hectares per EU citizen. The Footprint is the area used to support a defined populations consumption including the area needed to produce the materials consumed and to absorb the waste. The deficit is the difference between the biocapacity and Ecological Footprint of a region or country.
