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?

Student footprint
Reagan, Mooresville, NC, US, 14
my carbon footprint is 7,535, it is below average in my region. Most of my footprint came from transportation (3,244kgs). I expected most of it to come from transportation because we travel different places a lot and we normally always drive. in the future to decrease my footprint we can drive less by only driving where we need to and walk more places
