The GREEN SUBURBANITE SCORE (GSS)
An active choice to pursue a lifestyle transformation toward more sustainable practices could be evaluated for its effectiveness in part through the use of the Ecological Footprint Calculator (Global Footprint Network, 2020). The Ecological Footprint Calculator provides results based primarily on transactions in three sectors of food, housing, and transportation. However, it cannot include some of the value included in a transformational approach to self-development, which could be customized toward suburbanites. Therefore, each citizen would have an opportunity to calculate their GREEN SUBURBANITE Score (GSS), which incorporates additional information regarding common ground issues. Therefore, a calculator is being created to accommodate the GSS Calculation, to be released in the future. Please refer back to the GREEN SUBURBANITE webpage for updates.
