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 Footprint
My name is Matthew. I am from Mooresville, North Carolina in the United States of America. I am 14 years old and i'm in 9th grade. My carbon footprint is 12,712. Most of my footprint came from using power in my home. It is a high footprint but it is below average compared to the people around me. In the future I will not change any thing about my carbon footprint because it is already below average and I don't want to change myself when i'm doing better than most other people.
That is bad not to change you should change
how is your Carbon footprint so high its bad
