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 results
Analizing my carbon footprint, I have to recognise that I'm very proud because I'm lower than the average person in Spain, but also I feel motivated because I'm higher than the worldwide average and I want to change it.
So, focusing on each category, I'm lower than the average in 3 of the 4 categories, but specially in transportation, where I'm 13 times lower than the average. However, I'm higher than the average in home and I have to think about how to reduce it, may be recycling I can reach my goal.
I´m agree
