PLACING YOUR FINDINGS IN GLOBAL CONTEXT

Students discuss their findings. They compare their local data with global data. http://earthtrends.wri.org/

Questions to investigate include:

1. How close is your use of resources to the world average?

2. Where in the world are the extremes of use?

3. What one change could you make in your footprint that would bring you closer to the world average?
