It is very important that we know ourselves before trying to lead others.

My Ecological Footprint
“The way we live has a lot to do with simple living. We not only have to be leaders at work, but also leaders of our households.” -KP.
After seeing my Eco Footprint results, I have noticed that I could be saving way more energy and just all around doing better in the environment that I live in. When taking the quiz, I was looking at the different options that came along with the questions and I thought to myself “I should really be choosing another option”. When taking tests as such, I was a bit apprehensive about answering the question because I wanted to have good answers, but it only showed me what I should be doing on an everyday basis.
When I saw my results, it said we would need 10.5 earths to help compensate for the type lifestyle that I live. It’s actually sad in a way because we live on one earth and the way I live could be better. There are some things that I’m going to take into consideration and just try to live an all-around healthy lifestyle. No one wants to pay more money for lights, no one wants to pay fines for littering (because that effects our environment too), and no one wants to be that one person who may be messing up for others in our environment. I really liked this quiz because it made me look at things totally different. If I take the advice from the quiz, I’m pretty sure I can go back to needing just one earth to live a simple life on.
This quiz definitely showed myself some vital changes I needed to make in my everyday life. I should be more aware of the things that are harming our environment, I should be watching my food intake, and I should overall want to live a simple life. Just imagine if the whole world lived the same way we did, there would be a lot more damage done to our environment. I honestly encourage people to take this quiz because it really bring important attention to things we may have been blind to.
