My wife took the quiz as she lives today and as she lived in Poland. She got 3.9 planets with her current way of life in America and she got 1 planet with her way of life in Poland.

8.1 Planets. I should just kill myself to save the future generations.

11.7! Holy hell...it has to be because of the high daily travel and the low mpg of my car. I'm w/Beefcake, lol.

2.4 for me... not bad for being in an industrialized country, I suppose but it shows I could do better. Pretty sobering.

the only way you could do better is by not owning a car and not having electricity. not going to happen unless you want to spend a few hundred grand on a complete solar system for your house.

Well, I take the train to work and back and don't drive alone, so there's not much I could do better there. I could get a car with better mileage (current one is in the 25-35mph bracket). I don't always eat stuff locally grown although I easily could - I live within walking distance of both a natural food store that sells largely locally grown food and my town's Saturday market where local farmers sell organically grown produce.

So yeah I could probably knock a few points off my total without anything radical like moving into a hut or turning of electricity, lol...

10.3

5.2


And stop all this silliness about killing oneself....it's only a matter of time before Avian Flu makes the jump to humans and thins the herd. Nature has a way of taking care of itself.
