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 is less than my regions, my total 11,252, my most majority came from food
I was surprised by my carbon footprint I thought it would be more than everyone else's average.
What surprised me was that my food majority was one of the highest in the class. What I can decrease is my food and buying food because we go to wal-mart a couple times a week.
Your carbon footprint was actually pretty low. Its surprising that the majority came from food, most people’s comes from transportation.
Your footprint was low. I'm surprised that your food would be high but your transportation wouldn't be high also.
