Student Footprints

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 would disagree that we instantaneously solve this problem simply by switching to glass. For one, glass is brittle and dangerous when it shatters, making entirely unusable for shipping or packaging. Secondly, the cost of producing so much glass would cause the cost of goods to skyrocket. Lastly, if you succeeded in replacing all plastic with glass, you would just start throwing out all the extra glass, which would hurt the environment even more due to glass' shatter rate and non-existent decay rate.
