Ecological Footprint

Accoring to recent studies, Worldwide, there exist 1.8 biologically productive global hectares per person (per annum??).

If you are interested in checking out how many hectares you require to live the way that you do, and how many planets we would need if everyone lived as you do, then check out this quick quiz at:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/static/in_depth/world/2002/disposable_planet/quiz/

Very interesting.... Perhapstrue, perhaps not.... I'm embarrassed to say that if everyone lived as I do, we would need 5.9 planet earths!!! OUCH.... Best I change my ways!!
