4 The Ecological Footprint is one way of measuring how our lifestyles impact not only on the country and eventually on the planet, and also on other people. It calculates how much productive land, freshwater and sea is needed to feed us and provide all the energy, water and materials we use in our everyday lives. It also calculates the emissions generated from the oil, coal and gas we burn at ever-increasing rates, and it determines how much land is required to absorb our wastes. Reducing our ecological footprint is a key aim of every country. A one planet lifestyle means having a footprint of less than 1.8 global hectares per person. This is the highest sustainable footprint.
5 Human Development Index (HDI) is a relative score that captures how conducive conditions are in a given nation for people to enjoy long, healthy and creative lives, the UNDP rates Mauritius at a score of This is the lowest acceptable well being level.
6 Both these indicators put Mauritius at the threshold of an unsustainable lifestyle with an ecological footprint of 1.8 global hectares per person, an ecological deficit of 0.7 and an HDI of 0.8. Mauritius could be the first country to move to this upper right quadrant deemed sustainable.
