Joseph's Ecological Footprint



My type of lifestyle will need 5.1 Planet Earths and 22.6 global acres of the Earth's productive area, to provide me with enough resources to survive.

In order for me to decrease my ecological footprint, I will need to start purchasing products that are using less packaging or were made out of 100% post-consumer recycled content material. This would decrease the amount of Planet Earths to 4.1, thus I would use only 521 million fewer global acres, an area that could cover 391 million football fields.
