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?

eat more natural and organic foods
The foods you eat matter. You should go to grocery stores that sell organic foods and don't process their foods
I agree that food production has a large impact on our world, eating organic or locally grown foods can definitely make a difference. Between growing, shipping, and packaging, the food we eat can greatly affect our climate.
I agree however have you ever tried to resist a burger form hungry jacks? The burgers are better at hungry jacks. Come into store now buy 1 whopper get cheese fries free. T&Cs apply. Only available for a limited time. Authorised by the Australian government Canberra
I agree with you all as well. Something I have started as a New Year’s resolution is cutting out all meat that is not locally grown and reducing my intake of other animal products such as cheese. Not only do I feel better physically but also mentally as I know I am doing my best in that part of my life to help the issue. I think this is something others should try as well.
I agree with you, I have been eating organic food for a long time and besides feeling better, it's a way of fighting against global warming.
