CATEGORY - GLOBAL HECTARES
FOOD - 1.6
MOBILITY - 0
SHELTER - 0.6
GOODS/SERVICES - 0.5
TOTAL FOOTPRINT - 2.7



IN COMPARISON, THE AVERAGE ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT IN YOUR COUNTRY IS 4.7 GLOBAL HECTARES PER PERSON.

WORLDWIDE, THERE EXIST 1.8 BIOLOGICALLY PRODUCTIVE GLOBAL HECTARES PER PERSON.



IF EVERYONE LIVED LIKE YOU, WE WOULD NEED 1.5 PLANETS.

What kind of alarmist nonsense is this?
Your carbon foot print is completely irrelevent. The effects of human behavior on climate change is negligible no matter what Al Gore (you know, the guy who invented the internet) tells you.
Solar activity is the reason behind it.

The reasons to go green is to reduce your dependence on the exsisting social structure. The less people who depend on fossil fuel, the less lobbying power the oil companies have and the fewer wars we have to fight to secure the petroleum to run this country.

Please, for the love of humanity, do some research.

Hi Goatboy77,
It has taken a while to do my resarch, but here I am back: If you type in following question: Is it true the reasons to go green is to reduce your dependence on the existing social structure? into the form provided in the attached link, you will get the answer. YouŽll get the same answer if you ask "does it make any harm to be alarmist?". Better being alarmist than nothing. In any case, any vegan will confirm that being vegan helps reducing environmental stress, and as non vegans everybody can also help in many ways...

Bye for now, my dear Bakunin. I recommend to read you also Karl Marx, speciallally "The Capital", where he was already pointing to globalisation and was suggesting workers should unite worldwide (own legitime globalisation, to be able to beat the capital). Read also Engels, Lenin and Trotzky, but not Stalin or Mao. You will learn a lot about globalisation and what would needed to be done. Green or not Green, globalisation will rule you, my dear! Have fun with the link: !stairwell.com/pharm/ [stairwell.com/pharm/]

Goatboy: I'm not chasing you, I promise! you just keep turning up in interesting threads!

The "solar influence is causing global warming" has been well and truly debunked. A good list of sources:

Oh has it? What then, ended the pleistocene epoch?

Let me guess, HUMANS! amirite?

Just because the climate has been changed by solar activity before doesn't mean it's changing because of it now. The data doesn't match.


Goatboy77May 19, 7:15am
Ever considered the possibility that it doesn't match because we were still living in caves at the end of the peistocene?
Climatology is a very young science. A few hundred years is not enough of a control period in a six billion year timeline, let alone the last fifty or sixty.
