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?

Reduce Transportation
Transportation seemed to be the highest category in most people's carbon footprint due to the amount of CO2 planes, cars, and other forms of transportation give off. It's important to be aware of this and take action in any way possible. Whether that be riding a bike or bus, walking, or carpooling. Small actions makes a difference.
