When should you die?

[EdWort]

I guess I'm living on borrowed time based on this wacko's site.

[Lil' Sparky]

What a crock of splattered pig guts!

 

[EdWort]

Yeah, it really took off when I put in how many km I fly for business and how much money I spend in a year. I guess if we all did not fly and did not spend any money the world would be a better place (since people would die from not having jobs to pay for food as when folks stop buying stuff, the people who make it stop making it and the people who transport it stop transporting it, .....all those jobs lost trickling down. But hey, less people means the planet won't die from a fever...

 

[Alamo_Beer]

I died at 8.5.....

 

[Ryanh1801]

HAHA 4.4 years old. damn.

 

[Loweface]

Ha I live to be 20!!! (But I've an environmental degree)

 

[Professor Frink]

11.5 years. It's only that high because I take the bus to work, cuz I eat a hell of a lot of meat.

 

[Philip1993]

What a complete fraud. I died at age 1.4.

I'm still trying to figure out how much meat I ate had any significant effect on CO2 emissions... Methane emissions perhaps, but CO2?

 

[dirtymike1]

I died at 8.4....wow I suck at this living thing!

 

[BlindLemonLars]

Geez...2.9 years! And I DO use green energy, I DO recycle organic and other goods, I DO drive a "gas miser" and I don't fly a whole lot. I'm guessing meat consumption and spending is what did me in...

I'm also guessing this is not the most scientific of tests! Well intentioned, but seriously stupid...

 

[fusion94]

apparently even with a land rover i can live forever...calling bs on this...

 

[findthefish]

Haha, that was retarded. I should have died at 11.1.

I think I've heard some environmental types saying that cow burps/farts are a big source of greenhouse gases. So it's probably tied to supporting the meat industry.

I died at 4.4. The money spending part was a big piece of that. not sure how it relates.

 

[BrewWench]

It's the processing of meat that burns a lot of energy, and the amount of water it takes during the cleaning and processing is astronomical - like an Olympic-sized swimming pool of clean water per cow or something crazy like that.

I live to be 25.9, so I should have died a few years ago!

Hopefully tonight

 

[Glibbidy]

Hopefully tonight

Nonsense! It's your Birthday!

I'll outlive you all, unless I die trying.

 

[Evan!]

10.6. Nice...I wasn't really affected by it until the cartoon pig kasploded. OMFG, because that pig kasploded, I'm GOIN GREEN!

Hey, you know, I figure, if I'm SUPPOSED to die at age 10, and I'm 28, then I'm a damn good survivalist. That nice little flash game just affirmed my goals...the larger the carbon footprint, the better a survivalist you are. 'scuse me while I run over a cow with my h2.

 

[AN_TKE]

creative little site - i tried to answer as green as possible on the first try, and the thing checked out, saying i could live forever. Then i went through it again and noticed that the question that seemed to have the largest effect on the weight of my hog was the question on where my money was spent. On the third try i answered like a complete bastard, except spent about 30% of my money on funding environmentally aware/pro-envoronmental companies, and i could still live forever.

Interesting....

 

[PseudoChef]

30 here. You guys suck

 

[ArcaneXor]

I died at age 8.6.

 

[EdWort]

I redid mine and now I'm going to live forever, but I only spend $10,000 and it's all donated to AlGore.

 

[BlindLemonLars]

30 here. You guys suck

Damn vegetarians!!

 

[mrfocus]

28.5!!!

Mostly due to the fact that I don't spend much (I'm in University...)

 

[Sea]

Am I the only one who, when that pig exploded thought, hmmmmm, BACON!

 

[Brewsmith]

4 Years old.

If all of the best options are chosen it's 74 years. That's with everyone living with 8 or more people in a tiny house all making under $10,000 a year. That sounds like a great idea...

Actually it is forever. My little piggy just flew away.

They also consider lost trees to make room for them.. this is kind of N/A in the US since there is little need here to clear land for bovine useage
It also fails to account for effect free spending (I pay out $35k a year in mortgage interest no "supply chain" there).

My question is since I chose to have 1 kid which is under half the average, do I get credit for the second kid not producing?

 

[DeathBrewer]

planet slayer????? BLASPHEMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LONG LIVE SLAYER!!!!!!!!!!

Actually, trees can actually produce more CO2 than they absorb if they are allowed to die and rot instead of being harvested and replanted.

22.6

I thought it would be much lower. I fly every month.
