Watched this last night and was so intrigued by it. Click on the “Human Footprint” text and you’ll see a calculator that calculates how many eggs, newspapers, loafs of bread…etc..you’ll consume in a lifetime. Seemed a little like déjà vu.

I.E. Water used in a lifetime of showers per NatGeo “The U.S. avg equals 25 gallons of water per shower, over 700,000 in a lifetime.” ///+ Water used in a lifetime of samples: If the average interior designer orders 250 samples a year and works for 40 years, that’s an additional 22,500 gallons of water in a lifetime.

Just think it’s interesting to see specials on tv that apply to our mission as well…
