What's your ecological footprint?

[Scientist]

Yes my friends, everyone at one point at his/her life asks him/herself the question: "How many global hectares are needed to sustain my lifestyle?"
Well, now you can get an answer!
"The Global Footprint Network supports a sustainable economy by promoting the Ecological Footprint, a tool that makes sustainability measurable. We coordinate research and develop methodological standards so that decision makers have robust resource accounts to ensure that we live within the Earth's budget."

I beat Scientist! Proof that I'm a better person than him.

This doesn't make me one of those eco-geeks does it...
If I had a car and a life, I'd probably score far higher :-(
