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?

My Carbon Footprint (Bulgaria)
Hi. I am Ralica, I am 16 years old. I live in Bulgaria and I'm going to tell about my results.
Every day I go to school by bus. I like caring of our plants at school.
My carbon footprint result are:
Trasportation: 93 kgs (mine) 442 kgs (region)
Home: 1 724 kgs (mine) 1 944 kgs (region)
Food: 1 917 kgs (mine) 1 518 kgs (region)
Purchases: 159 kgs (mine) 128 kgs (region)
I had a larger transportation! Good Job!
I had much higher levels, I am from the USA. I think it is very interesting the difference between countries.
Good Carbon Footprint!

Your carbon footprint is really good! I live in the USA and I have a very high transportation compared to my region. I think that caring for the plants at your school is a good way to help the environment. I think having your food and purchases being the only high carbon you have is pretty good. I think it is cool to get to compare carbon footprints with other countries. You are doing a great job to help the environment!
