Decarbonizing Global Logistics

Logistics operations account for approximately 10-12% of global CO2 emissions. For most shippers and importers, logistics represents a "Scope 3" emission category. Measuring these emissions is the foundational step toward CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) and environmental compliance.

Emission Comparisons:

  • Air Freight: The most carbon-intensive mode, emitting up to 40x more than ocean transport.
  • Sea Freight: The most efficient mode for bulk cargo, though fuel types remain a transition challenge.
  • Sustainability Advantage: Switching from road to rail for inland drayage can reduce footprint by over 60%.

This tool uses industry-standard emission factors (grams of CO2 per Tonne-KM). These estimates help businesses choose more sustainable carriers and support their "Net Zero" transition by quantifying the impact of their supply chain decisions.
