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 family footprint
I need to use less electronic devices or let the light turn off if I am not going to use it because it consumes a lot of energy
yes that's a good idea because your just wasting energy in your home and the bills will go up. i think i would do the same as well.
I think its good that you think that the lights need to be turned off when your not using it. Most people dont think that.
I think that is a great idea to use less energy. To save the Earth and carbon emissions is the key goal.
I think its good that you think that the lights need to be turned off when your not using it. Most people don't think that is important however it is very important.
It would be a good idea to start turning lights off in no one is in the room or if you are not home, it may seem like a little thing that doesn't matter but it will make a difference.
I think it would be great if you turned of your light if you are not using it, that would save a lot of energy. With this project were finding better way to save Earth and carbon emissions, and just turning your light off would definitely help.
I try to do that, but being a busy teenager, it is quite hard.
I think it might work, but as a human race we tend to use these items on a daily basis and changing our entire life form to alter around one area could effect us all in harmful ways, depending on how we handle it.
