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?

Protect of the environment
When i did this test i noticed the different categories where i am polluting the environment. In some categories I noticed that I pollute more than the other people, for example in transportation. And the most surprising thing to me was when my footprint calculator exceeded the average of my country. That motivates me to reduce my hours watching TV, charging my cellphone, and using the computer. Also motivates me to walk more and ride a bike. With these and other actions I can reduce my footprint calculator. That makes me happy...
