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?

How can I reduce my carbon footprint?
My carbon footprint can be reduced if I'll start to walk more, not to ask someone to give me a ride with their car. Also, I could eat more of the fruits and vegetables from my grandma's garden than the ones from a supermarket. Like this, I'll combat air pollution and help the Earth to be healthier and my life style would be improved.
