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 Carbon Footprint
Hi! My name is Ruzica. I'm from Pozega, Croatia. I'm 16, but soon I will be 17. My total carbon footprint is 5831 kg, which is about the same as the average person in Croatia as I predicted. The majority of my footprint comes from food because I eat a lot of meat and drink a lot of milk. Other part of footprint comes from home. I think it is because we primarily heat our home with wood but I will ask my family to change that
