How Green Are You?

I just played the consumer consequences game. Thanks to my friend Abby for sending me the link.

My score was 1.9 I’m pretty good, but as frugally as I live, it would still take two planets to support my lifestyle.

I took the quiz a couple of times. Even if I ate less and gave up driving to the trailhead, I’d still score 1.9. But if I lived like most of the people in my age group and education level, it would take 6.5 planets to support the “average” American lifestyle. Yikes!
