Sustainability – How many Earths do I need?

After testing using the ecological footprint by Global Footprint Network, I got this picture:

If everybody on Earth lives like me, we would need 5 Earths.
There are possibilities of errors, such as when it asks me of the economy of the fuel that I use, I did not know what to choose.
However, this is way too many.
Now, I realized that the way I am living is not sustainable for humanity. As the resources we are using cannot be caught up by the speed Earth is regenerating.
Also, I learned that as an individual, we can make the Earth more sustainable by reusing resources such as plastic bags, or even switching to those reusable bags which you can bring to shopping centers. As well as recycling resources and not just throwing them away. It’s because most trash is burned in and it can release very much greenhouse gases.
