#Biocapacity
It is the capacity the planet has to regenerate and supply the natural

lower, it means that a country is spending more resources than of what the planet can produce.
#Planets
It’s the number of Planets each individual or country needs to respond
to their consumption. The more planets an individual or country needs the more the consumption is high.
