| Abstract | Sustainable development is one of the most important global issues used to reduce destructive effects on the environment regarding economic growth and development to remove human needs. Various indicators have examined, estimated and interpreted the subject in different terms; ecological footprint is one of these indicators, which has been defined in recent decades. This index identifies and estimates all of variables related to producing and consuming life of people comparing them with resources' ability and determining changes in consumption patterns. Ecological footprint is a prospective index so that it indicates resources situation from the past to present time. Therefore, this index can be used for long-term planning in field of management and environmental economics. This study was carried out to estimate ecological footprint of Pardis, which is one of strategic cities around Tehran, Iran. With 2014 data, The obtained results showed tolerable ecological footprint of Pardis in electricity, transportation, natural gases heating, water, food, and waste sectors. Accordingly, Pardis can be used as supportive region and ecological footprint of Tehran applying a resource management. |
