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
Having calculated my carbon footprint on this page has been an activity that will be very helpful to me because I can know exactly what kind of activities my footprint is higher than average and based on this being able to change my habits that increase my carbon footprint the most, this also left me reflecting on our large carbon footprint that we are leaving in the world and the fact that we really need to change because the average of Mexico is 4,686 kgs and a footprint globally sustainable should only be around 1,000 kg
