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 total footprint was 19643. Transportation was 10598 kg, home was 5336 kg, food was 3400 kg, and purchases was 532 kg. Transportation was the highest because my family travels a lot during the year. Purchases was the lowest because my family tries to only make purchases that are necessary.
