Here's somethin you might want to try if you have the time. Try adding up your total daily consumption for one day. For 24 hours record your consumption of:
grains/vegetables/fruit (kg)
meat/dairy (kg)
refined/manufactured (kg)
hot water (L)
cold water (L)
(don't forget flushing the toilet and taking showers)
single use items (coffee cups, juice containers, napkins) incl. recyclables
energy use (estimate based on wattage multiplied by use time. Computer is roughly 100-300 W depending on how intensive your use is. Air conditioner is about 1200 W, CD player is 85 W, TV is around 200 W. Oven is 1200 W. You can look it all up if you want.
fuel in L of gasoline
If you are sharing stuff, like 3 people driving in a car, divide the fuel use per capita to get your personal consumption.
It would be interesting to see about how much people use. Please don't lie or change your habits.
