can't believe how high some people's are, I hope it makes them consider their impact on the planet, but I doubt it will.

I'd have to agree :(

IN COMPARISON, THE AVERAGE ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT IN YOUR COUNTRY IS 8.8 GLOBAL HECTARES PER PERSON.

WORLDWIDE, THERE EXIST 1.8 BIOLOGICALLY PRODUCTIVE GLOBAL HECTARES PER PERSON.

IF EVERYONE LIVED LIKE YOU, WE WOULD NEED 8.5 PLANETS.

I've chosen not to purchase a car and use my bike + public transport to get around & only buy locally grown/made fresh produce for this very reason =)

I'm pretty dissapointed with a 3 footprint, but when I see some people getting 20+ foot prints I just sigh in horror and disgust.

Heh, are all the UK members under double digits?

Huzzah for UK public transport ^_^

That has nothing to do with it...see below, I chose 0 on public transport in my retake changing only my location to the UK. This whole thing is bogus.

:huh:

Mine went from 16 to 4.7 just by changing from the US to the UK...biased against the US apparently :rolleyes:
