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?

Student Footprints
Upon reviewing the average student footprint for this area, I noticed that the transportation section was extremely high. While I would not know why, my assumption was that this was due to the great amount the students have to drive to reach sports practices, games and extra curricular activities. The only suggestion I would have for this would be to carpool more often, however does anyone else have any other suggestions?
