Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -According to a 2018 study in Germany, the average annual carbon footprint for individual sports was around 1006 kg CO2e, while for an individual participating in team sports was 514 kg CO2e. Sport-specific comparisons show skydiving has the highest carbon footprint (2, 841kg CO2e), followed by golf (2, 195 kg CO2e).
Detailed explanation-2: -Canada’s environmental capacity to regenerate resources (biocapacity) in 2014 was 14.6 global hectares per person, meaning our biocapacity still exceeds our Ecological Footprint. Unfortunately, the gap between our Footprint and our biocapacity has narrowed each year.
