Calculate and post your footprint.

I got an 88.4... :yelrotflmao:
(I score a 10 if I take out all travel for work)

Skians40 - 88.4 (10 w/o work travel)
Kraken - 27.0
evolution - 23.6
Phate89 - 14.6
theGOOCH - 7.6
MarkMyWords - 5.7
spicypumpkin - 5.4
Chillen - 4.7

I really hope someone else travels for work so I'm not topping this list off!

Al Gore is that you?
thanks for inventing the internet BTW

27.0
 
hhhmmm...7.6 tons per year (I have a gas guzzler, but I drive very little) Other than my choice of automobile I try not to be decadent
 
My house and car aren't bad... i think i come in around 8 or 9 with those two. It's all the flights i have to take for work that bumps me up almost 80 points!


Kraken, did you notice step 3 to reducing your footprint??

"BUY CARBON CREDITS!" :boxing_smiley:

I've already signed up to purchase carbon credits.:rolleyes:

We have an SUV and a mini van plus we drive a lot.

Since I'm licensed to design sustainable buildings maybe I'll come renovate your house Mr. Gore. LOL
 
5.4 Yay!

They need a more detailed test, like whether or not you buy locally grown foods versus ones shipped up from South America. Also things like whether or not you use heating and air conditioning. We don't have air conditioning and we try not to use the heater unless the house gets below 50 degrees F.
 
This test just takes the national averages of each activity and gives the score based on that.

I think it's BS that I have a 88+ because I have to travel internationally for work. I drive a fricken Vespa six months out of the year!!
 
We don't have a dishwasher so that should eliminate some. :eek2:

Other than that what does one do when you have 3 kids? Can't pile them all into a Geo Metro.

I've seen 9 people in an auto-rickshaw... a geo metro would be like a cadillac for your kids! Trade in that SUV you decadent, over-polluting, ozone killer! Think about the polar bears!
 
23.6

Now that's hawt.

Since footprint is singular, is this calculation for the right or left foot?

That was dumb, you should have just thrown a few bucks to our buddy Al... don't you know that would have your hemi more eco-friendly! :rolleyes:
 
Maybe we'd need air conditioning if we lived in Arizona. We've only had a total of about 10 hot days this year where it goes over 100. Even at 105, we don't need the air conditioning.

One year we had a freakishly hot day where it got up to 113, that was unbearable. But fortunately it was only one day.
