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?

What is crazy to me is that I never knew how much of an impact me not turning off the lights or the water could have. I take really long baths most of the time to relax from the long days....doing this project made me rethink my shower times. I do know that I am going to try to be better about how much I leave lights on and how much water I use.
