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 footprint...
Hi, My name is Dulce. My carbon footprint is totally above the average carbon used in Guatemala My carbon footprint is 5592 kgs of CO2 per year, compared to an average of 1954 kgs for Guatemala. Every part of my carbon footprint is Ok, but in the aspects Home, and food is totally above the average. I think that the reason because in my home we use the fans, every day, because it's really hot, to be more sustainable, may use less the fan, less hours during the day, only the necessary.
