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?

Reflection
I would reduce the use of electric, water and gas at anytime in my home. Such as cooling and heating room, cook meals, washing clothes and dishes, flushing toliet, drinking water. These are effective because it will not be a habit to waste. A structural solution can't help me be more sustainable. It wouldn't compromise my quality of life because it's the global reasonability to save sources which use most.
