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 name is Todd and I live in Mooresville North Carolina United States. My carbon footprint was 12,799 which is less than my region. The majority of my footprint came from transportation which was not surprising because I go to many places mainly to be with friends. Although I was surprised at my purchases because I buy a lot of goods and it was much lower than I thought. A way to make my footprint decrease is by walking or riding a bike.
I have the same problem too with transportation. I think I need to do the same thing and start walking and not travel as much.
That is a good idea to lower your transportation.
My carbon footprint is almost the same as yours. Walking or riding a bike will defiantly reduce your carbon footprint.
my footprint was really close. I should start riding a bike
I think you should ride with your friends when you go with them places
