my consumption:
CATEGORY/ ACRES
FOOD: 4.2
MOBILITY: 1.7
SHELTER: 3
GOODS/SERVICES: 3.2
TOTAL FOOTPRINT: 12
IN COMPARISON, THE AVERAGE ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT IN YOUR COUNTRY IS 24 ACRES PER PERSON. WORLDWIDE, THERE EXIST 4.5 BIOLOGICALLY PRODUCTIVE ACRES PER PERSON.
IF EVERYONE LIVED LIKE YOU, WE WOULD NEED 2.7 PLANETS.
