Air Pollution Indicator
According to where I live based on my zip code, I live in a fairly air safe zone. It is ranked in the 20 percentile, which is very low and in the green zone (healthy).
Earthday Ecological Footprint Quiz said I would need 4.1 earths to sustain my lifestyle. This was a more intresting quiz as you got to have an avatar character. And as you took the quiz it walks around and then you get a question to answer relating to your lifestyle, such as how often do you eat poultry, beef, seafood, etc. Overall, I liked this quiz as it had a "flash" player to give you more of a visual.
Kids Carbon Footprint
This quiz was very much like the Earthday Ecological Footprint Quiz, except you were told wheather or not you were able to make the "Green" choice. It gives you suggestions on what is the most eco-friendly answer to their quesitons.

6.67 Earths. I thought I was doing better than that. The quiz doesn't seem to agree with me driving my full size pick-up!
ReplyDeleteI was around the "3 earths" area too! :)
ReplyDeleteI like the Ragstock idea eventhough I personaly don't like to wear other peoples clothes. What we always did at our house was cut up the old shirts and make rags out of them. we would also cut up old jeans so my mom would have patches for our other jeans. I think one of my sisters even made a quilt out of some the the old jeans. Also there is a Ragstock on Superior st. if you didn't know.
ReplyDeleteI too enjoyed the Earthday Ecological Footprint Quiz because of the little cartoon, found it kind of fun :). But I agree, it is a little scary to think that most of us would require more than one earth, when in reality, we only have one.
ReplyDeleteI've had trouble commenting on yours?? I dunno what the deal is but I was about the same about of Earths. Oh and I love Ragstock, I'm a big thrift shopper!
