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?

Carbon Footprint
My carbon footprint is 8,122kgs, which is lower than average. I expected it to be more because I use up a lot of electricity, my room does not get much sunlight. When I took my survey, I noticed that most of my emission was in the home section. I am going to try and not use as much power and moderate my water usage. Is there any other method I could use to lower my carbon footprint in my house?
