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?

Environmental Problems
I think myself that in order to stop global warming and to save energy is really if we all as a world nation get together and do better at polluting the air and littering. I also feel that we need to do something about how much fumes are being pumped into our atmosphere and creating the ozone layer. We need to find a way to transport those dirty and toxic fumes somewhere else, where they aren't hurting our planet or any living being on this planet.
