Footprint

I found out my footprint and it said that it would take 4.6 planets to provide enough energy if everyone else lived the same way that i do. But when i went back and listened to the suggestions the program gave me i was able to bring my footprint down to 3.6 planets. I is hard for me to answer some of these questions because i live in a dorm suite with seven other people and together we use/waste a lot of energy and i believe that if i lived on my own in an apartment that my footprint would be much much smaller. I also believe that since i do not drive or vacation very often the only thing that keeps my score so high is that I eat a lot of meat which brings my score up and that also i requires services, both of these combined make my score very large and i cannot think it would be much cheaper to reduce them since i will not stop eating meat and i do not believe i believe it would be more expensive to buy locally grown food and not worth.
