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?

The importance of being aware
We, the students, will be the ones who will drive the world forward, we will have children and we will be responsible for making a better society. That is why being aware of our individual footprint is important, to start reducing it and, when we are adults, we will be responsible beings who can teach future generations.
