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?

Hello from Spain,
I live in a ville near Valencia. We are having some problems in our area because of there are a cement factory next to us which burn toxic and hazardous wastes. The fume sent off pollute the air we breathe and this increase the risk of suffer cancer. Some people is fighting for change this huge problem. I think that it's not only for our health, it's too because of the pollution this action is causing on the environment.
