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?

Planes
Planes pollute a lot they are the most polluting way of transportation ( without rockets ). If we want to stop CO2 we need to use the plane less. What do you think???
Your wrong cruise ships are the most polluting way of trasportation.
Okay so we need to use less planes and cruise ships.
Humains also help nature don't forget
How much exactly does a plane pollute?
Zelda12 humans never helped they only made things worst they always tried but at the end the ambition and selfishness that humans have always made it bad
say less
90 kg of CO2 is how much a plane pollutes for 1 hour
But planes fly all over the planet at any time and there are thousands of planes in the air every day.
I think we should use planes less when traveling shorter distances. A plane's CO2 emissions are higher during the take off and landing phases. So the more planes that fly shorter distances excrete a higher amount of emissions. However, when thinking about the amount of CO2 polluted by a plane and car both traveling the same long distances, the plane would leave less emissions than the car. In this case, when traveling long distances, a plane would be more beneficial.
I agree with JOHN135. For smaller distances, it's best to not use a plane. Maybe saving planes for going across the country or a large distance like that is a better option for all of us.
I say that the governement could spend some money for the general hybrid car producion
