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?

The Importance of your Carbon Use
The student carbon footprint calculator was an enlightening experience. I believe that students, teachers, adults and schools should try it for themselves. When calculating your carbon footprint, you are able to see what you could do to reduce it, especially with seperate sections like home and transportation. The only way to reduce your carbon footprint is to find out what things you are doing to contribute to the release of carbon. I had recently used this calculator to find my carbon footprint and retook it today. I can say truthfully, that this calculator has helped me make better decisions in my daily life. Decisions like composting more often and walking more often, have made a large impact on my yearly carbon release. If you haven't already, take the test on the carbon footprint calculator, and track your progress.This calculator helped me be more environmentally conscious and I have no doubt it will do the same for you
