A little 1 minute quiz I found while trolling around on a lefty site.

 

Take the quiz yourself  and see if you can beat my score of 20!

 

Admitedly, I'm vulnerable in the mobility category, but I'm going to see if I can't eat meat at every meal to up my food score.

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 4.4 PLANETS.

I for one, am proud of how many people I put to work through my consumption. It's my little part in the war on poverty.

I prefer to think my footprint is across the backs and necks of the third world, but I guess 12.5 planets will do.

That's without my three vehicles.
I think it's the "eat meat with EVERY meal" that did it.

[Chad Fairbanks]

EARTH FIRST! WE'LL STRIPMINE THE REST LATER! WOO-HOO!

[dogbyte12]

awww nuts. My footprint is just 18 and there only needs to be 4 planets to support me. I must be doing something wrong.

I've always been a very medium person.

Actually, being dim witted, I didn't see my little island of Pago Pago to click on. But I suppose the US will do..

You pansy. As a Sacramento area lone commuter with a rusting bike in the backyard, I have a 12 planet footprint!

Lets get going on the space program and get the moon and mars colonies going. Looks like we're going to need it.

I stop the SUV occasionally to take bites out of living animals as I drive to the strip mines that I own.
