Would you still bring your luggage on board a plane after looking at this data? Table of Contents 1：Comparison of reductions in daily carbon dioxide emissions 2：Number of days of reduction against per capita carbon dioxide emissions 3：If all visitors to Japan did not carry their luggage onto the plane 1：Comparison of reductions in daily carbon dioxide emissions We have previously analyzed the carbon dioxide emission reductions produced by not carrying 20 kg of checked baggage on board an airplane. We have compared the effect of this reduction in daily carbon dioxide emissions with the various other measures this time. In conclusion, we have found that the carbon dioxide emission reductions achieved by reducing the amount of baggage carried on board an airplane are overwhelming. Its carbon dioxide emissions reduction is 74.5 kg for a one-way trip to Japan alone. (Average figure based on the distance from 19 countries to Japan). The carbon dioxide emissions of the 20 kg of checked baggage are based on the data provided by ECTA (The European Clean Trucking Alliance) in their “Guidelines for Measuring and Managing CO2 Emission from Freight Transport Operations” by ECTA (The European Clean Trucking Alliance). The carbon dioxide emissions intensityread moreWould you still bring your luggage on board a plane after looking at this data?

Environmental activist Greta Thunberg’s (Sweden) activities have even given rise to the term ‘Flight Shame’. As Japan is an island nation, 99.4% of foreign visitors to Japan enter and leave the country by plane with heavy luggage (source: 2019 Survey of Foreign Visitor Spending Trends in Japan). For those from neighboring countries such as South Korea, coming to Japan by ship is also an option, but it is impossible to require all foreign travelers to come to Japan by anything other than air. According to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport, and Tourism, the carbon dioxide emissions per person traveling 1km (in 2019) are 98g for air (75% of the car emissions), 57g (44%) for buses, and 17g (13%) for trains, compared to 130g for cars. Therefore, flying into Japan and traveling around Japan in a rented car is the worst way of traveling in terms ofread moreSustainable travel by reducing luggage
