A college student spent the week hiking on the Appalachian Trail and then spends Friday night walking around New York City's Time Square. What was her ecological footprint during the week compared to Friday night?
A. Her ecological footprint was small in the
natural environment and high in the manmade
environment.
B. Her ecological footprint was large in the
natural environment (because she was the
only human) and small in the man-made
environment (because there are lots of
humans).
C. Her ecological footprint was the same in
both environments because ecological
footprints are only calculated over long (at
least a year) periods of time for entire human
populations.
D. More information is needed about what
resources the student used in both
environments to determine her ecological
footprint.
