Do pets consuming the Earth's resources?
A report from the World natural Foundation (World Wild Fund) said, a only European of home cat spent of resources than African one life in poverty line Xia (2 dollars/days) of people high 16 times times; but currently European has 47 million only home cat, and United States has 76 million only, this two national of pet cat by spent of, on enough to let life in poverty line Xia of people to Shen 1 time times of living has. Of course, does not mean not pets saved resources will fall to the poor.      
However we can use more macro point of view: so much food with the energy to keep pets, manufacturing of greenhouse gas emissions an absolute number, and the most affected by climate change plays, as things stand, are also people in poor countries.
In addition, pets also cannot resist diseases, so pets with the positioning of impact on society and the natural, should not be ignored. But in many countries population decreased sharply, pet has special significance.
