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
My overall carbon footprint is 9897 which is more than I thought it would be. The category that added the most to my carbon footprint was transportation since I play a lot of sports I travel a lot by plane and car. My transportation carbon level was 5074 kgs, half of my overall level. The most surprising part was that the food portion of it has the lowest with only 367 kgs
