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?

My footprint Comparision
According to the calculator, my footprint is almost five times greater than the average in my country, Ecuador. That fact has surprised me a lot, all this time I thought I wasn´t producing so much waste, but I was wrong. Now I am triying to think of ways to reduce my pollution in my daily life, any ideas?
