Just over one whole planet!!! ROFL. ;-)

Weenie. : )

Hey Anna, don't feel bad. I'll share one of my seven planets with you.

Okay, I lied, I answered all the questions like a complete anti-envirowhacko, I don't even fly but if we all did live like that, according to them, we'd 21.2 planets to support us.

I think that if we all lived like that we'd come up with alternative energy sources, and of course, we'd have even more farm-raised meat.

And another thing...where do they think those veggies come from? Answer, from me and other farmers who use energy to grow and market them. I'd have to do a study or find one but being involved in animal and crop agriculture, I think that the best nutrition for amount of energy expended would be beef and other farm raised animals. I think we could save lots of energy if we all became carnivores instead of omnivores.

LOL. I eat only nuclear waste to help keep our earth clean and green. ;-)

IF EVERYONE LIVED LIKE YOU, WE WOULD NEED 18.1 PLANETS.







Beat that!!!!

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

LOL (I thought I saw a strange glow surrounding you!)

[freedumb2003]

See my post #66 -- I think I have the best score so far (try flying a lot and commuting a lot)

[Scenic Sounds]

I know, you thought it was all spiritual. ;-)

[Aeronaut]

I don't even fly...

This is where the test failed me! I fly about 400 hours per year (Its my job). That should get me a whole bunch of more planets.

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

Damn. : )

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

Oh, yes, I did. I nearly gave you my fruit cup as an offering.

Excuse me, but where the heck is the goods/services questions or did they just make up a score out of thin air? It's been years since I bought any "goods" other than food much less "services" (no kinky puns intended). Never mind there isn't any public transportation out here in the boonies and that travelling over 100 miles a day just to get to work and school is a bit much for a pack mule. Perhaps I would be more earth friendly sitting at home on my rear collecting welfare. BTW, I don't recall grass huts having electricity and phone jacks so how much of the earth's precious resources is that eco freak using to keep his web site going?

[Scenic Sounds]

LOL. Actually, I got a mundane 7.1 planets.

Just like my politics - right down the middle. ;-)

I'm at 38 acres.

2 more acres and I get my mule!

Gut reaction says the Greens would go along with that.
