The basis of my score was that I am "headed in the right direction" but I'm not necessarily living a sustainable lifestyle. It would take 5.1 Earths to sustain all the people on the planet if everyone lived like me. My shopping and eating habits are definitely the areas that I need to improve on.
I think this reflects a busy lifestyle. I go to school full-time and work full-time, and the time that I do have I don't want to waste waiting for public transportation. I now realize that this is something that I need to prioritize and make an effort to change my ways. I think this is something my family could also improve on. My parents both drive to work separately when they could drop each other off instead.
These results were definitely surprising and I think they will change the way that I live my life. Many people don't realize that it's the little things that matter like recycling, buying renewable and environmentally-friendly products, unplugging electrical devices when not in use, that will all make a huge difference in the long run.
