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?

My total carbon footprint was 7,197 kgs of CO2 a year, which is below average. The majority of this was used for home electronics which is what I expected it to be since I usually walk to where I need to go and I don't go on many big vacations or plane trips. I learned that it's the very little things, like purchasing clothing with packaging or using your laptop for and hour has a big impact on my personal carbon footprint. In the future I will be more aware of these little things and try to decrease my carbon footprint.
I agree that it is just the littlest things that could increase your carbon footprint which is why we need to pay a little more attention and realize that our actions effect the earth.
I agree that the little appliances make a big difference, I agree with you on purchasing cloth, your carbon footprint was way below mine and below the average so that's really good.
Cut down on daily phone usage and try not the watch the tv as much. 
My Carbon footprint is around the same as yours, I also agree about purchasing cloth and how even smaller electronics make a difference.
