Voice 2: Footprints can have a big effect. Footprints affected Josh's small garden. But our eco-footprints can have an even larger effect on the earth. Today's Spotlight is on eco-footprints.
声音2：足迹可以产生重大的影响。足迹对乔什的小花园造成了影响。而我们的生态足迹甚至可以对地球产生更大的影响。今天重点报道节目就来谈谈生态足迹。
Voice 1: An ecological footprint, or eco-footprint, is not an actual mark on the ground. Instead, it is an idea to understand a person's effect on the earth. Every person on the earth uses resources to live. We use the earth to grow food. We cut down trees to build houses. And we use coal to create electricity and heat. We use these resources to support ourselves.
声音1：生态足迹并不是指留在地上的印迹。而是指个人对地球产生的影响。地球上的每个人在生活中都要使用资源。我们用土地种植食物。我们砍掉树木建房子。我们用煤发电和供热。我们使用这些资源来维持生活。
Voice 2: People need land to produce natural resources. They also need land to break down waste into smaller parts. A person's eco-footprint measures how much land a person needs to do this. Many people in the world would need more land than we have on the earth. We are using too much of the earth's natural resources. Our eco-footprints are too big.
声音2：人们需要土地生产自然资源。需要土地分解废弃物。一个人的生态足迹可指一个人在做这些事时需要的地域空间。世界上有很多人需要的地域空间超过其在地球上所拥有的。我们使用了地球上太多的自然资源。我们的生态足迹太太了。
