Ecological footprint: Do we fit on our planet?

In this whiteboard animation, I explain what our ecological footprint is. Comparing our footprint (natural resources we need and waste we create) and our biocapacity (what the Earth can provide), we can better understand how we fit our planet or not and how to transition to a sustainable development.
▶ In 2020, the world is actually using 1.7 planets ◀

LOL I had a job as database manager at a medicine company, as a programmer, it was yes, lot´s of money. I couln´t stand for it! It´s time we start to change ourselves. Where are you at your life? I´m allways studying, all the time, I´ve got a lot´s of nice titles. From university in Malmö, and, so on: So I guess at my state of awareness, I´m good at studying. So now I´m so into ecological engineer program 4 sustainability, in an university in Sweden. Everybody can do something out of their state of mind, or change the negative chains, and psykological prisons. You rock! ! ! ! ! ! !

Soy un dinosaurio y me llamo Anacleto
Por cosas del destino no morí en la glaciación
Mis amigos se extinguieron, me dejaron solo
Y tuve que resignarme a esta situación
Me aburría mucho porque no tenía parientes
Nadie conocido con quien salir a jugar
Tuve que inventarme amigos para entretenerme
Sentarme frente al espejo para conversar

Awesome video
I really liked it! I"m sharing it with my environmental club(I'm the president)

Excellent video, Alex! I’m thinking of making a new video on the how to calculate ecological footprints of countries and cities and the math behind it. Appreciate your explanation!
