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 name is Lucia Barbon, Im 15 years old, and I'm from Mooresville, North Carolina. My total Carbon Footprint was 1494 which is below the average for my Region. Most of my footprint came from transportation which makes sense because I am always in the car driving to my tournaments. I wasn't super surprised with my results other than the fact that I thought it was gonna be over the average. I would try to use better ways of transportation for long trips.
