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?

I think we should eat less meat, BECAUSE cattle farming harm our ecology. People don't understand this problem. We spend a lot of funds for farming and huge territories are occupied by these farms,also the cattle produses carbon dioxide and methane that are dangerous for nature. Slaughterhouses pollute water, air, soil and we do not even know about it. I think we should pay attention to this problem
