What’s your ecological footprint?

In: Toxic Times

18 Apr 2006

Here are my results:

FOOD 2.7
MOBILITY 0.2
SHELTER 1
GOODS/SERVICES 0.7
TOTAL FOOTPRINT 5

IN COMPARISON, THE AVERAGE ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT IN YOUR COUNTRY IS 24 ACRES PER PERSON.

WORLDWIDE, THERE EXIST 4.5 BIOLOGICALLY PRODUCTIVE ACRES PER PERSON.

IF EVERYONE LIVED LIKE YOU, WE WOULD NEED 1.1 PLANETS.

    Hey, at least you feel bad about it. :o] That’s a start. I’m so envious that your daughter got to travel the world. Have you posted pix yet?

About this blog

I'm not really famous. In case you were wondering. But I tried. I once believed that fame makes you real - a perversion of "The Velveteen Rabbit" theme that love makes you real. Guess I equated fame with love. Sad. You can read more about that here.
