10 1/2



I'm just guessing as I am not a physicist, mathematician, or environmentalist and have no clue how to "calculate" my footprint other than my shoe size.

Sorry, not sure how to insert a link but copy and paste this...

http://www.climatecrisis.net/takeaction/carboncalculator/




edit:  Put one that speaks in American.  :)

Oh dang...I added the mileage for my wife's car, air travel, etc... got my footprint at 26.4 tons per year.   National average is 7.5 tons per year.

YES!

5.9

And I am not in lockstep with Gore's documentary... I save fuel just because I believe we shouldn't be sending all our money to the Saudis.  

I try not to buy Chinese goods too.

I've been in a Walmart twice in 6 yrs.  

Went to a Target on Saturday and couldn't find a single item made in the USA.
