and those came from Spain.

I'm like how'd they get all the way from Spain

and still look this green?

- Better to not ask those questions.

(laughs)

- I'm vegan and I drive an electric car.

- I do shop at Amazon quite frequently.

Though I am also vegan.

- I do eat meat and dairy and I know that effects it a lot.

- I bike to work, I'm a vegetarian.

- I don't really think my lifestyles too crazy.

- The one thing that I haven't been able to kick,

that I would really like to is Amazon.

Amazon is so convenient but my goodness they put

so much packaging.

- [Female Narrator] So this test is called the

foot print calculator test.

- How often do you eat animal based products?

- It breaks it down by each individual animal product

that's interesting.

- I went vegetarian.

It used to be very often, but right now

it's limited to dairy sometimes?

- I like a burger.

- So I'm vegetarian so I'm gonna go with occasionally.

- I don't eat any of them ever.

- I guess I switch off on beef and poultry.

So I guess I'll go once or twice a week.

- How much of the food that you eat is

unprocessed, unpackaged or locally grown?

- So I bolt in Farmers Market for almost all of

my diet except for when I'm at work.

- I would say the majority of what I purchase

would be packaged because it's mostly from

like, the grocery store.

- I think everything that I buy comes in a package.

- 45% of my diet is fresh, unpackaged food.

- I do try to eat a lot of fresh vegetables,

but you know what, some of the vegetables are packaged!

Eeeugh!

I don't go to Farmers Markets that regularly.

Which I feel like is where you get like the local stuff.

- Which housing type best describes my home?

- Yeah, I'm definitely in a luxury condomini-

No definitely not.

(laughs)

I would be multistory apartment as well.

- I just moved two weeks ago into a freestanding house.

- And I have a house as well.

- I live in an apartment building

that has about eight units.

So it's pretty small.

- Yeah same, my apartments also small.

- Do you have electricity in your home?

I sure do.

- Yes I do.

- How energy efficient is your home?

- I might say above average.

- My house was made in the forties,

that seems like the worst span for like energy efficiency.

- I'm gonna say an efficiency centered design.

'Cause it has like one of those little nest things

that like adjust it.

I don't know.

(laughs)

- Compared to your neighbors,

how much trash do you generate?

- Again it's Amazon.

I swear it's just Amazon.

A lot of people order Amazon compared to my neighbors,

I'm probably about the same.

- We downgraded our bin size and I think we're about

25% of what we used to produce.

- We get a lot of like junk mail,

and I do shop online a lot, so I do get a lot of trash

that way, and they package everything individually

and then in the like- it's a lot of packaging.

And like cooking, and I have a dog,

we do generate a lot of trash sadly.

- I don't get a lot of mail or packages and I also compost.

We do like a freezer compost.

- How far do you travel by car or motorcycle each week?

- I try to take the bus and the train

and all that kind of stuff.

- I drive an electric car, I drive Nissan Leaf.

His name is Leaf Erickson.

- Awww.

- I'm gonna say like a hundred,

and I don't have a motorcycle.

- I bike to work four days a week,

and I don't have a motorcycle.

- We're both not cool.

- How far do you travel on public transportation each week?

- I'm gonna have to give this a hard zero.

Ever since I got a car and I got to meet enough

exciting people on the public transportation is Los Angeles.

- You do meet some exciting people.

- I don't take public transportation in LA.

- Mines zero.

I literally don't know how to take public transportation.

- How many hours do you fly each year?

- If I'm flying I usually fly either to the Seattle area

to see family or over to the east coast.

- The past two years I've only been going to like Mexico,

so we'll say 8 hours.

- Usually I don't fly that much.

- I have family out in Colorado.

We do fly for fun sometimes.

- Sadly, I feel like I flew to a lot of weddings last year.

- I flew 11 times last year.

Most of those were cross country flights.

- If everybody lived like me we would need two Earths.

- Yeah but you're doing way better than me.

It says if everyone lived like you we would need 2.6 Earths.

- 2.7 Earths.

- 1.7 Earths.

- So you're a better person than me.

- 3.1 Earths.

- If everyone lived like you we would need 3.3 Earths.

- That's a lot of Earths,

and this one is already so big that we live on.

- This is so much worse than I thought I was gonna get.

- Yeah that's really bad.

- Is this because of the flying?

- It gives you a breakdown of your footprint.

Food and mobility are my big issues right now.

- So yeah, a lot of mine is from mobility,

and you know it's not from my electric car

so its all from the flying.

- If everybody lived like you Earth Overshoot Day

would be on this day.

This means by this date,

we would have used as much from nature as Earth

can renew in the entire year.

- So I'm only making it to the 31st of July well.

- You're making it further than me,

I'm dead before then.

(laughs)

- All right so we're not feeling too good right now,

so let's explore some solutions.

- So on the solutions page of this quiz,

they have a bunch of different links to show you

how you can kinda lower your footprint.

- My biggest carbon footprint is coming from food.

That is definitely something that I can probably do more.

In doing that I kinda feel like it'll help me

be a little bit healthier.

- You can work with your governments to help advocate

for cleaner policies, renewable energy.

- I need to figure out ways to fly less.

- I mean it'd be great to find new ways to like get around,

then driving every single time.

And then also goods for me was higher than my mobility.

So like finding new ways of getting things,

maybe order online less.

- I'm a little surprised at my results.

I thought I was living like fully sustainably,

but like I'm still producing more carbon than this planet

can take so I think there's a lot of room for improvement.
