Abstract:

Based on the data of Shandong’ statistical yearbook-2013, Shandong’s ecological footprint (EF) and bio-capacity (BC) are calculated and analyzed. The ecological footprint is 4.594781 hm2 per capita, the ecological carrying capacity is 0.995870 hm2 per capita. Results show that Shandong is a region with a severe ecological deficit which comes up to 2.096052 hm2 per capita .That means the development of Shandong is not sustainable.
