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 carbon footprint was 16.558 that is above the average in my country Iceland. The main reason why my footprint was so high was transportation, it was 11.218 because I drive 28 km everyday to school. To reduce my footprint I could either quit school or take the bus.
