Developed by Dr. Jennie Moore, the ecoCity Footprint Tool supports measurement and action for living within the Earth’s ecological carrying capacity by providing cities with an urban metabolism, territorial and consumption-based greenhouse gas emissions inventories, and ecological footprint assessment. With this information, cities are able to pinpoint changes that will leverage maximum impact for achieving low carbon lifestyles aligned with climate stability goals and ecological carrying capacity. The Tool is designed to work with the International Ecocity Standards, allowing cities to collect data for the Tool while also populating information needed to measure progress against the Standards and vice-versa. The ecoCity Footprint Tool has been successfully piloted by cities in BC and around the world.
