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?

carbon footprints around the world
I've noticed that the carbon footprints around the world are different and on average are higher in more populated areas like America and lower in smaller places that use less technology every day. over time the carbon footprints of humans have increased because of technology and the population growing. The human population has grown because of reasons like medical advances and evolution, and technology which has also increased out carbon footprints and could be harmful to our enviorment.
