By providing a link between consumption and lifestyle and available ecological space, the Ecological Footprint illustrates the concepts of carrying capacity and sustainability. This article presents the results of a detailed study of Australia. The results indicate the Ecological Footprint of the average Australian is approximately 6 hectares per capita. This is more than 4 times the globally available ‘fair share’, placing Australia among the top five consuming nations in the world. This result highlights the unsustainable global nature of the Australian lifestyle, particularly the level of consumption of energy and animal products, with large inequities between Western countries such as Australia, and developing countries.","PeriodicalId":425760,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Environmental Management","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128347968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Clearly one of the aims of environmental reporting is to influence how stakeholders perceive the environmental performance of organizations. It is therefore timely to examine the influence that environmental reports can have on community perceptions of risk. This article presents the outcomes of research into the influence that corporation-provided environmental information has had on communities surrounding a domestic waste landfill and a mineral sands mine in the South West of Western Australia. ‘Influence’ was measured by analyzing the change in community perceptions of risk, trust, and bias after the introduction of an information pamphlet. The research indicates that, for the two surveyed communities, provision of information significantly altered perceptions of the three variables. This study also found that information provision was just as likely to affect community risk perceptions even if respondents believed the information to be unreliable and inaccurate. Finally, the research shows that regular communication is more likely to result in positive perceptions of corporate performance than would sporadic and irregular reporting.","PeriodicalId":425760,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Environmental Management","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121548114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
