What’s your ecological footprint?

I did the test at MyFootprint.org and this is what I came up with for Carol and I:

Category Global Hectares

Food 3.1, Mobility 1, Shelter 1.5, Goods/Services 2.6 = Total Footprint 8.2

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 4.6 planets.

Still quite high even though we’re slightly below the Canadian national average. Pretty shocking stuff, considering we do try and conserve.
