I think you need to leave your tv on more often and trade in some of those compact fluorescents for good old fashioned incandescents. also, you should probably get a car (preferably one made in detroit). it will make your life more fulfilling and rewarding, AND you can feel good about helping our economy thrive. $7.00 a month???

I didn't really get how the earthday.net site was calculating my total. My average electric bill is $7.00 a month and I don't own a car, so I'm not sure how if everyone lived like me we'd be consuming 2 earths.

I took the quiz on earthday.net twice, once saying I was from Canada and once claiming the US as home. I answered the questions the same way both times, and got different results. The test asks things that are subjective like "Compared to people in your neighborhood, how much waste do you generate? Much less, about the same, or much more" and then equates your answer to a mathematical equation which tells how many Earths would be required to help everyone live the same way. Fluff.
