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 intensity
