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?

Transportasion
Hey, my name is DrÃfa and I live in Selfoss. I live 2 km from my school. I usually have a ride with my parents in school but sometimes I walk, wich takes me only 5 minutes. I travel on vacations in my country in a car with my family, we often go a long way to go on a vacations, maby somewhere 400 km from our hometown. And that we do maby 4 times per year. I travel to other land ca 2 times per year, that is 4 flights. That is why my transportasion numer is so high, cars and airplanes are not good for the world. I should walk way often to school and try to carpool with my friends when we go do something fun.
