4.3 earths here. One of the questions made me wonder....

Compared to people in your neighborhood, how much waste do you generate?
Much less
About the same
Much more

Reminds me of Curly's line in 'City Slickers': "I crap bigger than you."

I took the test and in the US I scored 4.5 earths. In Germany, with identical answers I scored 3.5. HMMMMMMMM?!?!

I said I never fly on commercial carriers.

He responded with a smile.

Then I told him I prefer to charter the Gulfstream G500 or G550. Non-stop Boston to Maui.

Suddenly he looked really miffed.

One round trip should be worth well over 100 planets. (I haven't done it yet, but I've decide it's the best way to fly.)

CATEGORY ACRES

FOOD 3.7

MOBILITY 2

SHELTER 5.9

GOODS/SERVICES 5.4

TOTAL FOOTPRINT 17

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 3.8 PLANETS.

Only 3.8 planets... gesh.. so much for my goals to take over the universe...;}

Dang. Only 6.1 planets. At least our solar system can fulfill my needs. Gotta start flying some. Also, if I start driving faster, I think I can get my Jeep down below 15 mpg. Since it's just my wife and me, we don't make as much trash as our neighbors with kids, but maybe they're just really messy.

Three planets. (Can I help it if I'm retired, and don't drive, and don't eat anything that has more than 5 ingredients on the label?)

What a bunch of twaddle this stupid "quiz" is. This silly questionnaire indicates one thing: A bunch of useless people with WAAAAY too much time on their hands put it together. Sheesh. These guys need to go get work.

2.8 planets. Their survey defies logic.

Hey Mister 4 planets - I just filled out the survey, and....

"IF EVERYONE LIVED LIKE YOU, WE WOULD NEED 11.7 PLANETS."

Ha ha... in your FACE!

Four point one planets if everyone lived like me - and I'm living a pretty modest existence!

Typical environmental BS. They didn't even ask if I recycle!

Don't forget:

Next Guest: EPA Administrator Christine Todd Whitman
Date: Tuesday, April 22 (Earth Day)
Time: 6pm Eastern Time

We could do some serious Freeper activism by asking questions about the gun bill or something. Whitman would not answer since it does not concern environmental matters, but perhaps an advisor would see how mad folks are at its potential renewal.

I scored 8.8, which disappoints me greatly. I was hoping to break into double digits.

27.8 Earths. Maybe I should just take over a small country.
