Flying is ane of the worst things that y'all tin y'all produce for the environment. Aircraft are precisely almost the worst forms of carry inwards terms of the CO2 terms per rider kilometer. The UK's Department for Transport claim that flying is responsible for at to the lowest degree 6.3% of the UK's CO2 emissions. Many environmentalists nation that this is an underestimation.
The Flight Emissions Map allows y'all to calculate the carbon terms of every unmarried air flying that y'all stimulate got taken. Using the map y'all tin come inwards flights that y'all stimulate got taken or excogitation to stimulate got merely yesteryear clicking on cities on the map. Once y'all stimulate got entered each flying the map shows y'all the sum of CO2 emission of that flying inwards kilograms. You tin come inwards to a greater extent than than ane flying on the map together with have a carbon terms for each flying together with an overall total.
The map calculates the full emissions of a flying based on an estimation of the CO2 emitted for each kilometer of travel. The Flight Emissions Map uses an equidistant azimuthal projection. The cherry lines on the map follow a non bad circle together with each cherry draw of piece of job shows the equal distances from your selected indicate of departure.
