Your Personal Environmental Audit & Guide
Are you an Eco-Titan, an Eco-Tyrannosaurus rex, or perhaps an Eco-Slowpoke?
Did you know that if you were to make all the "right" environmental choices during your next trip to the supermarket, the benefits to the earth could be wiped out by the mere act of your driving one mile to and from the store in a poorly tuned, gas guzzling car with a cold engine and underinflated tires?
You may faithfully put your newspapers, bottles, plastics and aluminum at the curb for recycling. But, when it comes right down to it, just how well -- or badly -- do your daily activities at home, or on the job and in between affect the environment?
EarthScore offers today's environmentally conscious reader an opportunity to quantify their Energy use, Water use, Transportation, Consumerism, Toxics, Waste and Recycling, Environmental Advocacy, Respect for the Land, Livelihood, and Family Planning.
By analyzing 107 questions, EarthScore tallies Impact Points, which assess one's impact on the environment; counts Action Points, measuring positive contributions, and provides a score and rating on your own personal chart. Each section also lists resources, tips and suggestions which, if investigated will increase your ability to be more earth gentle.
