Students from around the world calculated their class mean and standard deviations for their footprints and posted them on our world map.
Do you see differences across the globe? If so, why do you think those differences exist?
Did you use the calculator to try to reduce your footprint down to the average from a citizen of another country? What changes would you have to make to lower your footprint in this way? Are you going to try and take some of these actions in your daily life?

My Footprint
My Carbon Footprint was less than I had expected. I had gotten 8,773 which is lower than the average in my area, lower by 954 to be exact. The highest category for me was food with 3,969. I had expected to get around 10,000 or higher but I am almost satisfied with my result. I hope to reduce my Carbon Footprint in the future.
