Carbon Footprint

Are you interested in knowing how sustainable the choices that you are making are?  Take the Carbon Footprint Quiz at: http://myfootprint.org/.


They calculate out your footprint based on how many Earth's it would take if everyone lived like you do.  I know that there are a lot of footprint calculators out there, but this is the best one that I have used.  Let us know how many Earth's your choices are equal to!

  2. I got 3.17 earths... Rog - did you include your flights? Airplane mileage is one the biggest impacts. Because I don't even use cars, but the airplanes got me.

  3. Meg- How much do you fly each year? I took this quiz over the summer and just recently and mine went down by one full earth because I was an omnivore and am now a vegetarian. Mine is 2.24 earths, which is a lot lower than Roger's even though we live together and do almost everything the same.

  4. Were you a vegetarian on St. Patrick's day?

    I wish there was a more accurate calculator where you calculated how often you eat meat, etc.
