Comparison of CO2 emissions by mode of transport. Trade by air cargo is an exception Table of Contents 1: CO2 Emissions per Unit Weight by Mode of Transportation 2: Export unit price and cost per means of transportation 3: CO2 Emissions per Passenger by Mode of Transportation 4: Summary 1: CO2 Emissions per Unit Weight by Mode of Transportation Over the past two months, we have made nine posts on Sustainable Travel, using a lot of data. This is our tenth post, so we will conclude our posts on “Sustainable Travel” once and for all. The last post is data on CO2 emissions per cargo and passenger for each mode of transportation. We hope that these data will encourage many people to think about transportation and checked baggage. In the “Sustainable Travel” series, we calculate CO2 emissions from checked baggage on airplanes by using data from “Guidelines for Measuring and Managing CO2 Emissions from Freight Transport Operations” by ECTA (EUROPEAN CHEMICAL TRANSPORT ASSOCIATION). Freight Transport Operations” of ECTA (The European Clean Trucking Alliance). The CO2 emissions intensity of cargo transported by airplanes (ton-kilometer) used in the calculations is 0.602 kgCO2/tkm. Source: ECTA According to ECTA data, the
