The words "cynical," "misanthropic," and "curmudgeon" didn't appear anywhere in the conclusions. Well, what do you expect in this sick, twisted, hypocritical cess-pit of an excuse for a world we all live in? Bah, humbug. Nasty, brutish, and short is about right.

It was obviously made up by some Earth Firster. Makes me wonder what their underlying assumptions are.
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

Geez Larry!
I hope you realize that by posting that response o' yours THREE TIMES in this thread, that you've just knocked another 10.4 months off your life exceptancy, AND ALSO used up another 1.37 hectares of the Earth's resources in one fell swoop, ol' boy!!!

I just took their little survey and all I can say is:
They are so full of sh!t their eyes are brown. They said the
biggest component of my global footprint is my air travel. I
was last on an airplane in 1984! My idea for a happy planet is to ride motorcycles. I always say no matter how bad I feel on any day, by the time I hit second gear I'm smiling!

Ditto, I fly less than once a year and was told the same thing. I'm using more than 3 times my share of resources. I'm working on getting that up to 4 times!!

Said I was similar to people from Norway, that's a surprise! Said I should paint little rainbows and happy faces on the gas tank, no not doing that. Said I should wear a clean pair of underwear everyday, Thanks Mom! Asked me "When did they start making Triumphs again?" Said I should go for a spin today, Well I agree with that one JH
