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?

Trying to Stop Drinking Water to Help lower your carbon footprint
Tap water is better for you than a plastic water bottle. Tap water also saves money. It is sad to say that there has been a lack of water in certain areas that effect people all because there is a demand for water to use in bottled water. We can stop this by trying to stop using and buying bottled water.

Sorry everyone I meant to make the title Trying to stop drinking bottled water to help lower your carbon footprint
lilly - if you would like to repost your comment with the correct title, then I will delete this one
Some people don't want to drink tap water because they think that it's dirty. Using a water filter really helps. I have one myself and I haven't used a plastic water bottle in a long time.
