Ecofootprint


I did not fare very well. My ecofootprint is 4.1 earths.  I do a lot of driving, traveling, and live in a big house. I have to drive a lot to work and school. I am a commuter student who also works every day. So I go from home to work to school back to home. That is a lot of driving a day. But it is hard to carpool with anyone because of my crazy schedule. I could modify my lifestyle by taking a local vacation instead of flying.
I try to visit Kentucky twice a year. So that is a lot of flying. If I cut down on the flying, my ecofootprint would decrease. In addition, eating less animal based foods, my family could decrease our ecofootprint to 3.9 earths. The quiz did not display the maximum population that earth could sustain if everyone lived like me. But because of this quiz, I definitely will be changing how I use energy.
