Chile posted an ecological deficit for the first time ever in 2011, the latest date data is available, as its growing Ecological Footprint exceeded its declining renewable natural resources. Chile\u2019s Ecological Footprint has been steadily growing over the years to reach 3.9 global hectares per person in 2011, according to the most recent data available.<\/p>\n<p>In simple terms, Chile now requires 1.1 times what its ecosystems can provide to sustain its current consumption.
