2. we currently need 1.7 earths to meet the demands we are making on our planet

3. but we only have one planet
If all people lived like the average Australian we would need resources from more than 5 planets
If everyone on earth had the consumption patterns of an average Australian, we would need more than four and a half planets to support us.
If we lived like the average North American we would need five planets. However, we do know that it is possible to increase our quality of life while reducing our impacts to a One Planet level.
