Ecology the science of the relations among living organisams and the environment where they live is a rather new scientific discipline that has gone through an extrodinarily intensive development in the 20th century, all the way to a multidisciplinary science whose local point also entrails human and all human's activities and the products thereof, in recent times. The aforesaid rapid devoloment of ecology owes to the identically rapid growth of human society in the past century, which brought about drastic and far reaching changes to biosphere. The task of ecology remains to be the explanation of the newly occured relationships in the environment.The interest in ecology from a scientific and expert aspect is great in our country, too. In that sense, a considerable number oд individual researchers and institutions have played an important role in the development of ecology in Macedonia.The survival of humanity depends on natural resources, so we must know how much we use them now and how much we should use them in the future.In this paper , special attention was devoted to considerations relating to one of the broadest of applied sustainability indicators ecological footprint , which indicates the relationship between human demands and generative capacity of the biosphere.
