Question

What do countries with large footprints have in common? Small footprints?

I don't really understand .

Answer 1

By footprints do you mean carbon footprint? If so, countries with larger carbon footprints are generally more advanced and are industrialized, while countries with smaller footprints are generally less developed.

Answer 2

Rich countries tend to have large ecological footprints. They use a lot of natural resources. Poor countries have small footprints because the use very little natural resources.
