How many planet's would we need if everyone lived like you?

3.5. Not that this means anything. It is just a guilt trip by the radical environmentalists whilst using tons of energy to lambaste us consumers.

Yeah..fuck em. I can't live without heat in the winter, because I'm in Canada. I can't live without air conditioning either, because it gets hot and HUMID around the Great Lakes in summer. And I just can't see myself giving up V6 low-end power for a super-efficient wimpy 4 cylinder car...so...I'll wait for the government to stop burning coal for power before I cramp my lifestyle in the name of the environment.

5.5 - I know I could do a little better (my gas mileage is terrible and I'm always on the go)

It's like this kiddos, until we, as humans, decide that we hate knowing when we are going to eat and become hunter gatherers once again, there is jack shit we can do.

Environutalists forget the basic fact that civilization, what they cannot do without, is a blight and until we revert back to our ancient past, there is nothing we can do.

Thusly, I am going to eat...alot of protein and train hard and get big and dare some sickly hippy to tell me I am wrong.

There is actually a lot that one can do, fairly simple things, to consume less and live more simply, WITHOUT significantly affecting one's quality of life. Nobody is talking about reverting to hunter-gatherer mode here.

Some simple things to consider to reduce your eco-footprint that anyone can do:
1. Ride your bicycle or walk to places less than a couple of miles from home, like the grocery store.
2. Consider using public transit more.
3. Line dry your clothes if you have a backyard.
4. Get a more fuel-efficient vehicle.

To dismiss anyone who suggests that an examination of one's personal habits in this regard is a worthwhile thing to do, as a nut, is disingenuous.

I got 3.2, but I live in a fraternity house, so I figure it will go down after I graduate?

And the whole food situation didn't help me.
