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?

carsharing
Everyday more and more people use to share their cars to do long trips, in this way the carbon footprint will be less. To find another person that will share the car or need a ride because they haven't one, there're some websites where people ask or offer seats for specific trip and in the last time it's become more popular. This is very interesting for the environment, because there are less emission in long trip and it's another way to meet new people.
