    If everyone in the world lived like you... how much earth do we need for the space, food and various resources?

    take your test here and find out just how "well off" you are!

    i got 8.3 global hectares, with Canada's average being 8.8 global hectares (so i'm better than average Canadians :) )

    If everyone lived like me, we would need 4.6 earth to have enough stuff for everyone... :(
     
    I had 14 acres with the average being 24 acres per person. So I guess that is good.

    If everyone lived like me, we would need 3.2 planets!
