Play Consumer Consequences

Here is a game put forth by American Public Media. If you don't want to feel bad about your lifestyle, don't take it. I'm pretty sure everyone unless you starve yourselves or live next to work is going to need more than one earth to sustain your lifestyle. Apparently I'm bad because my daily trip to work on the train is long (12 miles each way) even though i drive my car maybe once a week. I can't imagine how many earths someone uses that drives their car from nowheresville to work every day.

At the end of the game you get to view the scores of some Public Radio stars. They were all in the 6 earths range.

I posted the link to my neighborhood email list about a week ago. No one commented, or posted a score.

Oh, BTW, I wound up a little over 2 earths.
