Re: How much space do you require
I think that mine might be a little high. I eat alot of meat, but it is from deer that we harvest here; not factory-farmed animals. Not sure.. I try to conserve where I can and recycle too.. I think that they should include that :)
Re: How much space do you require
Ok, I'm bad... but that's mostly because I'm poor and can't afford good foods.

Re: How much space do you require
You guys are getting better results than me. I've done a few things to start minimizing my footprint. I now turn off all lights, computers, t.vs, ect. when I leave the room. I'm going to start a compost heap to reduce garbage output. I am also shortening my shower times to reduce water usage. :gj: Baby steps. :D
Re: How much space do you require
thats great that you're trying. Most people would be like, "Oh, mine's high. Oh well. I'm living comfortably."
