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 was never aware that I have such a large impact on the environment through the choices that I make on a daily basis. The calculator showed me that even the little things that I do, can have such a large negative impact.
I believe more people should be aware of the harmful things they do or the environment
I believe that people should realize that everything they do on a daily basis effects the things in out environment, therefore they should be more careful of what they do on a day to day.
@daniahadnan I agree with you, people should be more aware of their impact on the environment.
I agree with you in that we have a very big impact on the Earth, but it is a lot more then just what individuals do, it also includes cars, industrial, etc.
