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- MHS
Hey I'm Raven and I'm 15 years old. I live in Mooresville, North Carolina. I liked doing the carbon calculator project because we were able to find out a lot of things that we could fix in our homes. My total 6,930 which was below average of the normal totals. More than about half of my footprint came from my home. The results that I had were a little shocking because I thought it would be higher than it was. I learned that I spend a lot of my time at home and that I use a lot of home appliances. I'm going to try and cut back on how much energy I use at home.
