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?

SJR state- Creative ways to reduce your carbon footprint
I believe a way that we can reduce our carbon footprint is to buy clothes from a thrift store instead of buying brand new clothes. If we reduced the amount new clothes that we buy the might produce less. Also if we donated all of the clothes that we didn't want anymore they would not go to waste and others could have use for them. I do believe that if we all stopped buying as many clothes new as we normally do then we could reduce our carbon footprint and help the next generation. Below is a local link for Jacksonville that will pick up used clothing and give it to people in need.
