I am pleased to say that overall I think I am doing better than most of the statistics they threw up on the show. There is no way I consume all that milk in one year.</div><br /><div>The show got me thinking about my old buddy Al Gore and An Inconvenient Truth. I understand he has put his energies into supporting a new effort to combat global climate change. That effort is called <a href="http://www.climateprotect.org/about">The Alliance for Climate Protection</a>. And their big effort is called <a href="http://www.wecansolveit.org/">We Can Solve It</a>. Check them out. <a href="http://www.wecansolveit.org/">http://www.wecansolveit.org/</a></div><br /><div>Now I have to go back to the National Geographic website and take the personal consumption test to see how well I am actually doing. </div><br /><div>12,129 hamburger buns in one lifetime?
