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?

Small changes to benefit the environment
I believe something small we could all do to try and decrease our effect on the environment is by being more mindful when it comes to transportation. If you and your neighbor have the same class, maybe carpool instead of taking two separate cars. Instead of driving to the store maybe walking or biking. If there is public transportation maybe taking that instead of driving yourself. This article talks about transportation and the direct impact it has on your carbon footprint, and different ways you can lessen this.

i relly agree with you, its seems that carpooling or finding other forms of transportation is an easy way of reducing our footprint that very few people people do.
