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?

Ways to reduce Carbon footprint
For a long time me and my family recycled. One day the trash men or the recycle guys when on strike for a whole year. After that now me and my family have not recycled for two years already I put plastic bottles in the garbage and recyclable things in the garbage. Guy how do I get back to the habit of recycling.
The best way to go about it to renew your routine; start small, work towards separating whats trash and whats recyclable. Then, before you know it, you'll realize that you're recycling unconsciously. We are creatures of habit after all.
