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 Carbon Footprint
Gloria
Mooresville, NC, USA

My total carbon footprint was 11,194 kgs. I think this is kinda below average, but I may be wrong. The majority of my carbon footprint came from Transportation.
I was surprised because I didn't know it would be that much.
I could possibly walk to school more and use less vehicles and other things that impact my carbon footprint.
