Ever wondered how much “nature” your lifestyle requires? You’re about to find out by taking the Ecological Footprint Quiz.
The Ecological Footprint Quiz estimates how much productive land and water you need to support what you use and what you discard. There are a total of 15 simple questions and at the end of it, you’ll be able to compare your Ecological Footprint to what other people use and to what is available on this planet. However, to complete the test, you will need to know the population size of the area you’re residing in, the size of your house and the amount of petrol your car or motorbike consumes per 100 km.
However, the quiz does not allow you to uncheck any radio buttons, so my final ecological footprint cannot be taken as it is since I do not travel by motorbike, and I (obviously) have no idea how much petrol my (imaginary) motorbike consumes per 100 km!
But if you do travel by car and motorbike, you may want to take the quiz and see if everyone lived like you, how many planets we would need :)

How to know my car consume how much petrol when I only get to choose who to look for, like man or woman and age
*blurr*
LOL, here’s my result…
IN COMPARISON, THE AVERAGE ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT IN YOUR COUNTRY IS 3.2 GLOBAL HECTARES PER PERSON.
WORLDWIDE, THERE EXIST 1.8 BIOLOGICALLY PRODUCTIVE GLOBAL HECTARES PER PERSON.
IF EVERYONE LIVED LIKE YOU, WE WOULD NEED 2.1 PLANETS.
Hmmm…another friend of mine is facing the same problem.

ColourfulWorld: WHOA! Thanks for the alternative link :) And, 2.1 planets isn’t all that bad. I needed 4.3, but that wasn’t accurate because I don’t use a bike, you see..
I need 3.9 planets.
I am better than most people in my country though, they need 24 acres and I just needed a measley 17 acres to live on.
Quit hogging all the space Pelf!
Chris: I hear ya! :)
