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?

Laura's footprint
Hi! I am Laura, I’m 16 and I live in Denia, Alicante.
My total footprint is 3281 kg of CO2 for year, compared to an average of 6968 kg for Spain and 3791 kg in the world.
I consume more CO2 in the category of home and food but I fail to exceed the average of my country in any category.
