Farmerman - how'd you do that!?

The makers of the test admit it's skewed. They bias cities with more consumption. If you live in a city, you automatically have a bigger footprint. More infrastructure. I actually attempted to take the more in depth survey. It's in a database format. It asked questions I couldn't answer, but it did ask more detail. For example, it asked how much clothing and of what type I bought monthly. How much paper/tin/plastic/glass I bought and how much was recycled afterward.

Im in food production here at the farm and we only use trucks and diesels arent the most fuel efficient and we use a lot of miles up and I fly alot and , as doc said, its horribly skewed. Most farmers would have a big footprint but my footprint is much less than my acreage so I dont know . Id reword a numberof questions or carry them further tp sort out their significance
