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 Footprint
My name is Jaden and I live in Mooresville North Carolin, USA. I am 14 years old in 9th grade in High school. My total carbon footprint is 12,180. My carbon footprint is about average from every one's else. Most of my carbon footprint is from food, which is 6,878. I think that my result are what I expected. What surprised me the most was how much was on food. In the future I will try and cut down on the amount of food I buy and eat.
