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
Today i have calculated my carbon footprint and it was quite high. The biggest problem for me is the transportation because i live far away from my school and bus connections are pretty bad. I feel like better public transport organisation would help the earth a lot.
My carbon footprint was high a well because of transports... ?I think most of us take the plane too much (especially during the summer holidays) and that we should all try to take more public transports, like the train or the metro.
We are in this together!!!!
I did my carbon footprint and my biggest problem was also the transportations and especially the plane... even though the plane is very convenient, we should all try to take the train more!
