Exercise burns fuel and boosts your metabolism; the logic therefore goes that as you do more exercise you need more food (unless you're limiting what you eat - snore. Hardly a relevant discussion here). It's fair to say pretty much everyone is aware there are concerns about the earth's ability, both current and future, to produce enough food (and fresh water for that matter) for our rapidly expanding population. Should we do the right thing and reduce the amount of food we need? Should we stop exercising??
Add to this how much more washing you have to do to get those sweaty stinky clothes all clean and dry and ready to use again. Living with a rabid exerciser, I can tell you that washing machine is ALWAYS on. On the other hand, exercise improves your mental and physical health which means you're less likely to require medical treatment (resource heavy), right? But better health means you are likely to live longer, so you'll be consuming for longer. Harrumph. It's all too complicated!!
I hope you can see the tongue firmly stuck in cheek in this one - obviously I'm not being serious. Plus, it would be nigh on impossible to test this. Just a cheeky one to get started with...
Now, bring on the four day weekend - happy Jubilee!
