AB - Ecological Footprint (EF) in Korea has increased steeply over the past 50 years and, thus,the overshoot. It has been known that the main causes of the overshoot are population growth andthe increase of the consumption intensity per person. In this study, the EF trend in Korea is analyzedfor the past 50 years and it is found the major cause of the rapid increase of EF in Korea is the increaseof the consumption intensity per person. Among the sectors of the consumption, Carbon Footprint(CF) from the energy consumption and Grazing Land Footprint and Fishing Grounds Footprintfrom the protein consumption are the major players for the increase. It is also found that if currenttrend of the EF per person would be maintained until 2060, EF in Korea would be expected toincrease also continuously, despite of the decrease of the population from 2031. Therefore, thedirection of the environmental management should be considered for inducing the change of theindividual consumption patterns and the behavioral changes.
