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?

Bad
I just noticed that my carbon foorprint it’s freaking huge, I mean, this just made think about what Am I and we’re doing. But, honestly I don’t think 4,000kg is the mean carbon footprint in Mexico, despite that, surely my carbon footprint would still really high. I’m a little bit ashamed of this, not gonna lie.
Hi Mario, it's shocking to see how much impact we have. But instead of thinking about yourself as "bad", how about using it as an opportunity to make some lifestyle changes to reduce your impact?
