How do the oil sands of Fort McMurray reflect our ecological footprint?
What's the whole ecological footprint about anyways? Wondering take the test... When we did the activity as a class (averaging our responses) we discovered that we would need 4.5 earths to live the way we do. When Emilio took the test based on the way an average South American lives, we learned that they live on 0.5 of an earth, which means the people require less resources to live and are definitely living sustainably.
