Many people who want to reduce their ecological footprinthave focused on how much energy is expended (and howmany climate-warming greenhouse gases are emitted) intransporting food from its place of production to its place ofsale. The typical grocery store item is shipped by truck, air,and/or sea for many hundreds of miles before reaching theshelves, and this transport consumes oil. This concern over“food-miles” has helped drive the “locavore” movement tobuy and eat locally sourced food.However, food’s transport from producer to retailer, asmeasured by food-miles, is just one source of carbon emissionsin the overall process of producing and delivering food. In2008, environmental scientists Christopher Weber and H. ScottMathews conducted a thorough life-cycle analysis (p. 400) ofU.S. food production and delivery. By filling in the table below,you will get a better idea of how our dietary choices contribute toclimate change. After measuring mass, energy content, and dollar valuefor each…

WRITE ABOUT A THEME: Energy and MatterDecomposition typically occurs quickly in moist tropicalforests. However, waterlogging in the soil of some moisttropical forests results over time in a buildup of organicmatter called “peat.” In a short essay (100–150 words), discussthe relationship of net primary production, net ecosystemproduction, and decomposition for such an ecosystem. AreNPP and NEP likely to be positive? What do you think wouldhappen to NEP if a landowner drained the water from atropical peatland, exposing the organic matter to air?

Scientists at the Global Footprint Network calculate the energycomponent of our ecological footprint by estimating the amountof ecologically productive land and sea required to absorb thecarbon released from fossil fuel combustion. This translates into4.9 ha of the average American’s 7.2-ha ecological footprint.Another way to think about our footprint, however, is to estimatehow much land would be needed to grow biomass with anenergy content equal to that of the fossil fuel we burn.Assume that you are an average American who burns about6.3 metric tons of oil-equivalent in fossil fuels each year andthat average terrestrial net primary productivity (p. 32) can beexpressedas 0.0037 metric tons/ha/year. Calculate how manyhectares of land it would take to supply our fuel use by presentdayphotosynthetic production. Compare the energy component of your ecological footprintcalculated in this way with the 4.9 ha calculated usingthe method of the Global Footprint Network. Explainwhy results from…
