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?

We have to educate people about Global warming!

EWallI

Global warming is becoming serious issue nowadays. We all know who caused it and how and we also know how to fix it, but no one seems interested in doing anything. Governments and corporations who are producing more than 50% of greenhouse gasses seem untouchable and although people are quick to point that out, they are unwilling to change their behaviour that hurts environment. They do not believe that they, as small polluters, are doing damage just because they see the bigger polluters around themselves. I come across that way of thinking all the time and I think it is wrong and irresponsible.

Therefore I think governments and cities should organise some sort of educational events like exhibitions or even concerts where they will educate people about global warming and make them aware of their actions. In that way people will consider twice before turning the heat on if they can put sweater instead or using car for short distances that they can easily walk over . It might start a positive change in a society we know.

Before we start changing the world, we need to change ourselves. Only after that we can try to change others and the world afterwards.
