Check your ecological footprint

If everyone lived like me we'd need 1.7 planets. And it's only so low because I'm on mat leave and walk everywhere atm.

I thought the title said 'how QUEEN are you?'
I like Barbra Streisand so thought I'd do really well.

1.8 cos walk most places and don't fly as we go on holiday in the car - I wasn't sure about our house size though, but I am a fanatical recycler and avoid processed food if poss!

I am here to make you all feel better. 3.1 planets . And I thought I was pretty environmentally friendly. I do fly a lot with work though (trying to make myself feel better!!)

2.1 planets (that's if I did the conversions properly).

2.4, twinset??? I do drive (too far sometimes as you know!!!) and have flown a few times in the last 2 years, yours should be less than mine. (Or was that your footprint? Mine is 3.7)

3.3

Would need 1.8 planets.

However, I have no clue on the car fuel question or the size of my house in square metres so I just plumped in the middle.

But the average here is 6.6, so I'm not that bad I suppose...

So if we all become cycling, walking, vegans who only buy local produce and use no electricity, we can save our planet.

I think the test is somewhat flawed.
We can do our bit to save the planet, but it should lie with the world's governments and industry in particular to stop destroying our planet.

mine was 2.7 planets but: Why does it matter if you eat meat? There were no questions about recyclying were there?

rainforests are being cleared to make way for cattle rearing.
