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 Logan, and I'm from Mooresville, NC, USA. I'm 14, but will be 15 later this month, My carbon footprint was a little below average, 12,750, when the average is 15,918. The majority came from home, since I have a lot of people over at my house all the time. My results were honestly a little higher than I expected because I really don't do much. But then again all my other parts besides home was really low. Maybe in the future be better with water and electricity since its used the most.
your total is higher than mines
i think u have a really steady carbon footprint
By taking shorter showers and turning off water when you are not using it can defiantly help you reduce your footprint
Reducing electricity and water usage is a great way to decrease carbon footprint in home.
I think ur carbon footprint is at a good place
use less things and lower the carbon
Use less electricity at your house. This will decrease you house total.
One thing u could do to use less electricity at your house. Turn the water off when your brushing your teeth.
You could turn the lights off when you are not using them, or when it is sunny outside or bright you can turn all of the lights off
