  8. To support my lifestyle, it would take 5.7 earths, 26.7 global acres, and 27.5 pounds of carbon dioxide. I was definitely shocked, because I thought I was doing a good job but I guess its not enough.

  9. If everyone lived like I do, we would need 5.3 planets, and 23.5 global acres.

    I believe that I got this number because of the amount of fuel my family and I use in our cars and our home.

  19. 5.9 planet Earths
    26.2 global acres
    I am very surprised that I use six times the world average

    ReplyDelete
  20. 5.3 planet earths, 25.7 global acres, and 26.3 tons of carbon dioxide.
    this was not a surprise, it is probably due to the amount of driving my family does.

  21. 5.9 planet Earths
    26.2 Acres
    I am shocked that my lifestyle is almost six times the world average

  22. I would use 5 worlds and 22.3 acres. I thought that my world usage would be lower because I scored really low on a lot of the question. I think that only my dairy consumption and train usage was what threw me off.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I would use 5.1 earths and 22.9 global acres. Not that suprising we just need to cut down on what we use

    ReplyDelete
  24. 5.6 planets, 27.6 acres, and 20.3 carbon dioxide. I was very surpprised by these results. It was a lot lower than I thought it would be.

    If everyone lived like I did we would need 5.1 planets and 22.6 acres of land. I am surprised by this because I don't feel like I am using as many stuff as I do.

  33. if everybody in the world lived like i do we would need to use 5.5 planet earths and 24.4 acres of land. this showed me that i need to stop buying unnecessary things, and only the vital things.

  34. If everyone lived like I did we would need 5 planets and 22.3 acres of land. I think that even though it is better than most people, it is still more than the amount of resources the world has.

  35. If everyone lived like I did, it would take 6.2 planet earths, 27.6 global acres, and 30.8 tons of carbon dioxide. To have enough resources for everyone. I was surprised by how much I used.

  36. If everyone lived my life we would need 7.7 planets and 34 acres of land. It is alot of planets for one person.

    I would have used 5.3 planet earths. I was very suprised by this because i thought about how other people use a lot more than me, and the fact that there wasn't one person that only at least one planet earth.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I used 6.8 planets and 38 acres of land.
    I was surprised because there are a lot of people on this planet and if I use that much than they must have really nothing.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I used 5.1 planets and 22.9 global acres of the earth's productive area. I was surprised to see that I wasted that many planets. That means that if I wasted so much that there are other people on the earth that barely have anything.

    ReplyDelete
  41. 4.3 planets and i dont know the acres but it was close to 20. I thought this number was horriible (and i swear i was as honest as possible) but then when i looked at everyone elses I realized that 4.3 is not a horrible answer and we all seem to be living ike this. its shocking

    ReplyDelete
  42. I used 6.7 earths and 29.8 acres of the earths priductive area. To improve my result I beleive I need to recylce more, drive less and eat more local. I can take little steos day by day to improve my results

    ReplyDelete
  43. If everyone lived the same life as me we would use 5.1 planets, and each person would use 22.8 global acres of the earth's productive area.

    I feel that I am not choosing correct ways to live my life environmentally friendly, I would have never imagined that if everybody lived like me we would use 5.1 planets, and this was very surprising. I feel that it is neccesary for me to make better choices because I do not have 5.1 planets, I only have one and it is all that I am limited to.

  44. it would take 3.6 planets for me, 16.2 global acres and 16.1 tons of co2

    im kinda surprised it would take that much but not that surprised.

  45. If everyone lived the way I did, we would need 4.6 Earths. My family uses 20.6 acres of land. I was suprised at this because I had no idea my family used so much resources.

    ReplyDelete
  46. If everyone lived the way i do, we would need 5.8 planets. I use 25.6 acres of land. And we would need 28.5 tons of carbon dioxide. That is mind-blowing

    ReplyDelete

  52. I used 5.3 planets. I think this is very sad because we don't have 5.3 planets we only have 1 and there is nothing we can do about that. So I need to lower my usage

    ReplyDelete
  53. I used 4.4 planets if everynoe lived like me. I also need 19.4 achres of land, and my carbon footprint is at 19.3. So I need to lower my usage, and use less energy
