Canadian Association for the Club of Rome | Eric Miller and Peri Dworatzek on Ecological Footprint and Biocapacity @canadianassociationforthec7885 | Uploaded February 2024 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Our speakers today are Eric Miller and Peri Dworatzek. Eric is Director of the Ecological Footprint Initiative at York University, where he also teaches graduate courses in ecological economics and sustainability informatics. Peri is Senior Data Analyst with the Ecological Footprint Initiative at York University, where she leads a team of researchers applying Ecological Footprint and Biocapacity at national and subnational scales.
DESCRIPTION: Today we will learn about the Ecological Footprint and Biocapacity, from the team that measures this for Canada and internationally. Ecological Footprint is a scalable metric, applicable to individuals and families to communities, countries, and all of humanity. Across scales, and over time, this information helps us to understand limits and linkages between economic activity and lands and waters that sustain us. This will be especially important for understanding opportunities and constraints related to net zero emissions.
