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?

Transportation
As we all know, Global Warming is a worldwide fear that might one day make Earth toxic. We can prevent this by cutting down our fossil fuel emissions. You can help by taking a bus, walking to a short destination, and biking to school.
yea i agree taking the bus or maybe carpooling would really help with cutting down fuel emissions.
walking and riding bikes are good ways to reduce the amount of fossil fuels
I think that is a really good idea because I think that it is where most of the problem is because most peoples carbon footprints come from transportation.
I believe your right. We need to start being proactive in our transportation choices.
ya I agree also if everyone would walk or ride their bike somewhere close that a car is not needed than there would be less harm to the environment.
