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!
Hi everybody! My name is Stjepan. I'm from small town named Požega in Croatia. I study at Gymnasium. My carbon footprint is 22465 kg. Comparing to the average Croatian( 5736 kg) my footprint is enormusly big,I know but I can explain it. The main reason is that my family owns a huge orchard, actually we have the biggest orchard in the one of Croatia's regions. We also have 2 big houses,and my family is pretty big,too. But not everyrhing is so bad. Our orchard is an ecological orchard so I hope that you understand now why my footprint is so big. I will give my best to reduce my footprint.
