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?

Food
You can save energy by eating out less and preparing your meals at home. Using the same pots to prepare a dish rather than switching to different pots, as well as making a double portion at once to store leftover is the fridge for you to reheat and eat at a later time.
