Human Footprint
I stayed up late last night watching a documentary from the UK called “The Human Footprint”. National Geographic have a similar one going right now, but the I like the British sense of humor mixed in with the attached version. I took notes of all the stats when I watched the 75 minute long show, so here are the highlights (definately watch the show if you get a chance, seeing visually our consumption is really quite shocking and extraordinary.)
-8 years sitting in from the of the TV
-74,801 cups of tea (I’ll definitely beat this one)
-4239 rolls of toilet paper, yikes!
-13,354 eggs
-5277 apples
I’ll let you watch the rest…(keep an eye out for the two young kids on wooden run bikes, sweet!)
