What is your ecological footprint?

[Grog]

I wonder why the quiz doesn't give credit for not having any children? Without children, we generate less trash, use less energy, and consume less food and all sorts of goods. I can't take credit for making a decision not to have children for ecological reasons -- we were infertile. It's just a bit surprising that that fact doesn't lower our "footprint".

Kids have their own footprint.

The calculation is just for yourself (ex: if there's four people in your household, then each has its own footprint).
