As promised, a complete overhaul of your code. Essentially I simplified your HTML a bit and fully recreated the CSS to make the page fully responsive without the use of @media queries or any external framework.
box-sizing: border-box
for all elementsExamples of
Tested both landscape and portrait layout
Update
Use of Unicode does not seem to work on Android (or with some workaround), added inline SVG as an alternative. Idea behind it: loading some JS which in turn loads a single icon seems a bit overkill (not to mention s l o w)... SVG works on Android!

html,body { box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; max-width: 100% }

/*
Above CSS defines ALL elements to use 'border-box'
Defining `box-sizing: border-box` will make calculation/manipulating element sizes
much easier as (usually) you would want to know the width/height of an element
including its inner spacing ('padding') and border.
=> element width/height = content width/height + padding + border
Default CSS is 'box-sizing: content-box'
=> element width/height = content width/height
'margin' is never part of an element width/height, so use sparsely!

It would be easier to create this entire page than to fix each and every css bugs !
Add this at the very top of your Css below body styling
footer {
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
margin-bottom: 2vh;
width: 100%;
}
Well i couldnt perform the surgery but applied a little band aid on the injury ! this will stop the bleeding for a while until you walk again .
Check out the MDN Post on these topics too.

This is the nature of the webpage you have created because the content only goes as far as that height. In order for your footer element to stay at the bottom: I recommend utilizing Flexbox & setting margin-top: auto
to your footer. In order for the margin to kick in, simply give your container (in this case, .body
) the flex
display property & a minimum height
of 100vh
(so that it takes at least 100% of the viewport in terms of height) and assign column
as it's flex-direction
. This way, the footer can always stay at the bottom on your given layout.
body {
display: flex;
flex-flow: column;
min-height: 100vh;
}
footer.cl {
margin-top: auto;
}
I have made a few changes in your code. hope this will help you.
