Europe’s land footprint is 640 million hectares a year – an area equivalent to 1.5 times the size of Europe itself. This is the land required to make everything that we consume, from food to material products to fuel.
In December 2012, Friends of the Earth Europe held a conference to examine Europe’s land footprint, its causes, and solutions to the continent’s growing land dependency.
Notes from the event (including links to the presentations) are now available here.
