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
How can I reduce my carbon footprint?
Do you fly in airplanes a lot?
Yes i do
Can you help me?
Well, don't fly unless you need to. And if you must, then flying with other people divide the carbon footprint.
Well airplanes use a lot of CO2. Since you're flying in airplanes a lot that is contributing a lot of carbon to the atmosphere. So if I were you I would cut down on flying. That would certainly cut down your carbon footprint a lot.
