Calculate your eco-footprint
The Eco Footprint is a tool that quantifies human demand on nature, and nature's capacity to meet these demands.
Conceived in 1990 by Mathis Wackernagel and William Rees at The University of British Columbia, the Ecological Footprint is now in wide use by governments, communities, and businesses to monitor current ecological resource balances and to plan for the future.

A more recent tool is the ACF's fantastic Consumption Atlas which allows you to check on your consumption via postcode. Does require FLASH though.
