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?

Intrigued
I observed that there are higher carbon footprints in larger countries, advanced in technology and transportation. I think that this is interesting to compare it to the smaller countries, who do not have as large of a carbon footprint.
I observed the same thing. It is interesting to see the drastic difference between larger and smaller countries.
