In developed countries, many resources used (items purchased) are imported

from other parts of the world.

Comparison of different access to food

In developing countries, food is likely to be locally grown, foods are sold in season and

less processed food is eaten.

In developed countries, food often travels long distances, any food is available anytime and processed

food is widely sold.

Page 23: Living Planet Report: .

Basic definitions…Developing Country:

• Lower income per person & often large percentage of the population is very poor

• Lower wealth for the country to fight disease and effects of natural disasters

• Greater unemployment

• Lower education levels (especially among girls & women)

• Greater conflict or war within the country’s borders

• Greater likelihood that the government is unstable or led by a dictator

• Often fewer rights for the average citizen (or fewer rights for women compared to men)

• Less access to reliable and clean water

Page 24: Living Planet Report: .

Basic definitions…

• Developed country:– Developed economy– Access to technological improvements– Excellent infrastructure (roads, schools, medicine,

water/sanitation, etc)– More stable government– Higher GDP per capita (higher average income per

person)– Good education systems (and access for most, if not

all, citizens)– Good health care system

Page 26: Living Planet Report: .

Types of Resources:

Renewable:• Resources that the

Earth can replace in the same timeframe that they’re used.

• Examples?

Nonrenewable:• Resources that the

Earth cannot replace or not in the timeframe that they’re used.

• Examples?

Page 27: Living Planet Report: .

What is resource depletion?

• Over time, fewer resources available

• Our rate of use is greater than the rate of replacement

Is it possible for both renewable and nonrenewable resources to become

depleted? Explain …
