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?

What my carbon foot print made me realize
My carbon foot print made me realizes that I could cut back on somethings like recycling.My mom and I do recycle quite a bit but we could also have a separate compost bin to help reduce waist.I could also cut back on buying clothes, though I think I'm doing well because when I buy new clothes we go to goodwill and give my clothes away.
Me too, Pickles. We need to be doing more to bring it down. What we have isn't enough. We must work harder. We gotta join the low carbon footprints club. Starting now.
