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 Carbon Footprint
Hi my name is Jordan King and I attend St Johns River State College in Orange Park, Florida. My carbon footprint was 13,587 kg of CO2 per year, compared to an average of 13,115 kg for Florida, the United States, and 3,791 kg worldwide. I am not surprised at this because I do a lot of driving to and from work and on my off days. I currently do not make adjustments to help the environment but as i learn more, i will change my habits overtime.
