Abstract
The viewpoint that applying the ecological footprint method to evaluate ecological frangibility was put forward,and Jilin Province's ecological footprint was calculated.Results showed that acreage of ecological footprint is 1.805975hm2/per capita,available acreage of ecological carrying capacity is 0.663971hm2/per capita,the former is 2.72 times that of the latter,it has strong vulnerability.The land demand of fossil fuel is 1.041998hm2/per capita,accounting for 57.7 percent of total demand,has exceeded all the ecological carrying capacity.The ecological footprint of mostly biologic expendable of town is 0.464208hm2/per capita,and the ecological footprint of main agricultural products of the country is 0.431932hm2/per capita,the former is slightly higher than the latter.Finally,the direction of further study of the ecological footprint analysis was summed up.
