  Fortunately,not everyone on the planet is like the person in the
calculation.  We have the third worlders that if everyone were like them
we'd need a planet the size of Rhode Island.  So, it all balances out.  Plus
do we really know the basis of the calculation.  Could have been too many
buds in the membrain.

        CATEGORY  	ACRES
	FOOD    	5.2
	MOBILITY 	1.2
	SHELTER 	4
	GOODS/SERVICES 	4.7
	TOTAL FOOTPRINT	15

	IN COMPARISON, THE AVERAGE ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT IN YOUR COUNTRY
IS 24 ACRES PER PERSON.
WORLDWIDE, THERE EXIST 4.5 BIOLOGICALLY PRODUCTIVE ACRES PER PERSON.

IF EVERYONE LIVED LIKE YOU, WE WOULD NEED 3.4 PLANETS.

And they wonder why people think they're zealots.
