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?

Footprint
Taking part in this Stanford University activity has been interesting for me, since I have learnt about this project.
I think that the positive aspects of this project have improved my ordinary life to think how I can help to the planet ; for example to close the taps while I am having a shower, washing the dishes and brushing my teeth or for instance, to turn off the light when I go out any room.
Personally, I consider that the best aspect of the project is that, like me , a lot of people can change their attitude to do it better.
