I don't think that this is either funny or sad.

I see this as a 'canary in the coal mine' kind of reminder of how huge is the burden that civilization places on the planet.

As skewed as the Breitbart inc. mindset is, like a bored school boy, they have mindlessly picked at a scab that opened a wound of unimaginable consequences...

The haunting fact is that civilization is not sustainable.

Here is a simplistic calculator that can give a clue to the situation.

Take the test honestly and look at your results.

Then try 'gaming' the test to see what it would take to live within one planet.

It's an eye opener.
