Ecological Footprint

If everyone lived like me, we would need 7.7 additional planets the size of earth to sustain us all.  At least that is the result I generated upon completing this quiz.  This is quite humbling, since I admire all things conservation-oriented.  Clearly, I'm not practicing what I preach. 

I encourage you to take the quiz and perhaps gain some talking points to use with your kids.

I rated 3.3 planets. Way too much driving on my part, living out in the "country". Also, in the green world, People who eat meat are nailed everytime. Many environment-counscious people opt to be vegetarians, because of the "eco-load" on our planet. Interesting...
