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?

Big progress
Hello, Earth! I'm saying this for second time,
except today, I'm coming with better news. Last year when I did this footprint, my result was above 6000 which made me realise that I need to change something. So i did! I became more aware of the things around me, I kept telling members of my family how importat is it to watch what we are doing to the Earth. This year, my carbon footprint is around 4000 which is under the average footprint of my country, Croatia. I have been so happy to see that I acctualy did something different and good for myself and Earth. I hope to keep up with my new way of saving the Earth. I hope the rest of people can do that willingly, too.
That is really low compared to my total. My total was about 19,000!
Wow Matthew! Are you planing on lowering it down?
