Geographical and Level of Local Government Variation on the Phenomenon of Ecological Footprint in Indonesia: Descriptive Analysis

Abstract

To simplify the description of the damage phenomenon to the earth, the concept of ecological footprint can be used. This concept is not specifically built to calculate the destruction of the earth. This concept calculates how much space (land and water) humans need to produce the resources they need including absorbing the waste they produce. This study calculates Indonesia's ecological footprint by observing variations according to geography and the level of regional government.
