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 carbon footprint.
My carbon footprint is 6,696kgs. Compared to the world's average i think it's very low. The food is what i relase so much CO2 in.I think that to release less CO2 in food i should buy more ecologic food.
My carbon footprint is 5,142. Compared to others I think it´s more or less lower. The food is what make raised mi carbon footprint. I will try to buy less food from other distant countries and buy more local food.
My carbon footprint is 7,498 kgs. I think that getting local food is a good idea but also eating fast food raises your carbon footprint significantly, so eating store-bought food and cooking it at home is healthier than fast food.
