I live in a fairly big house and my car gets lousy gas mileage. :shrug:
 
I have the lowest here (8 acres) and I'm vegetarian, recycle, don't drive, have a small apartment, etc, etc, and it's still no where near the 5 acre limit. What do they expect?! :crap:
 
They probably think I should move in with you, BoP. And who am I to argue? :shrug: We could save the world.

Nothing more than for you to feel bad. Don't sweat it. Karma (not the whopping piles kind)

That average includes a large percentage of the worlds population living in third world nations. These people live in squalid, filthy conditions and if they aren't starving, they're right on the edge. I'll bet they use less than 2. Not suggesting that anyone should try or want to live that way, but I'll bet that's where they get their average.

Edit: Note that the poll is aimed at Americans. As Gonz says, trying to make you feel bad.

Wow...if only. I wear size 13's, and that'd save me a whole whack of cash on footwear alone...er...

I'm not doing so bad, though they don't mention recycling anywhere. What happened to the 3 R's ?
