Ecological Footprint: Ecological footprint measures how much land area is required to sustain an individual or population's consumption patterns and absorb its waste. It helps us understand our impact on Earth's resources.
Carrying Capacity: Carrying capacity refers to the maximum number of individuals or species that an ecosystem can support without degrading its ability to sustain them over time. Understanding carrying capacity is crucial for managing populations.
Habitat Loss: Habitat loss occurs when a natural habitat is destroyed or altered, making it unsuitable for the organisms that depend on it. It is a major threat to biodiversity and can lead to species extinction.
