A key notion on Ecological Footprint is ‘global hectare.’ A global hectare is defined as a hectare that isnormalized to have the world average productivity of all biologically productive land and water in a given year.There are many discussions regarding the use of global hectare. The purpose of this paper is, first, to clarify thenotion of global hectare by constructing a simple textbook model. Secondly, we present an interpretation of globalhectare based on the model. The model clearly shows that local-based or physical hectare is associated to efficiencywhile global hectare is to equity. Some discussions will follow. |
