    That for a dog owner to berate an SUV owner based on ones enviromental impact coul be seen as hypocritical.

    I'd have thought a humans ecological footprint would include their possessions, being that its mostly a life style choice...not a need

    then you're a gay fish. And can I hang out in your freezer room?

    All this eco-footprint stuff is just fancy lingo to try and trick you to run one way or the other. Quite frankly you would have to be a complete moron to actually give this study a second notice, and an even bigger idiot to fund this type of research.

    A few years back while my elderly mother was home alone, my suv chased a burglar away, oh wait, that was my dog.

    No way I'm getting rid of dogs just because there "footprint" is too big.

    Ours is bigger, what are you trying to say?
    Seriously, I think that carbon footprints are a load of bullshit.

    Lol What about tiny dogs?
    Do they have a smaller footprint than an SUV?

    Massive dogs will destroy us all, don't you know???

    Neopolitan mastiff owners are evil!

    This seems to be measuring eco-footprint in terms of amount of land needed to sustain a thing. It isn't measuring, for example, carbon emissions.
