Living Planet Report 1998
1998
Presents a quantitative picture of the sate of the world's natural environment and the human pressures upon it. Specifically, it presents WWF's Living Planet Index (LPI), a measure of the change in the health of the world's natural ecosystems since 1970, focusing on the earth's forest, freshwater, and marine biomes as these contain most of the earth's biodiversity. The report also analyses global consumption patterns to calculate Global Consumption Pressure -- a measure of the burden placed on the natural environment by humanity. People put pressure on forest, freshwater, and marine ecosystems through the production and consumption of resources such as grain, fish, wood, and freshwater, and the emission of pollutants such as carbon dioxides (CO2).
