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?

Carbon Footprint
My home was the biggest thing that contributed to my footprint. I noticed the appliances were a big factor. Is there any way I can cut down on their impact?
Maybe try to use more blankets instead of having your heat on at night.
or you could lower the heat altogether in your house and just wear a coat inside
