Ecological Footprint Activity The idea of this activity is to make teenagers aware of the necessity to protect the environment in which they live and show young people how they can save the nature in their regions for their children and grandchildren. Students can measure how ecological their footprints on the Earth are by doing the Ecological Footprint Test online.
