Mister Meier lives in a house, drives a car and likes to have breakfast on his terrace. And at the same time he takes care of the environment better than his neighbors do. But how ecofriendly does Mister Meier really live? How much does he consume without even noticing? And how big is his ecological footprint? MISTER MEIER AND THE ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT focuses on the consumption in every day life of an ordinary man. Eight chapters explain complex terms like overshoot, efficiency and sustainability in a child friendly way. The film is a contribution to the environmental awareness of the young generation.
