Is it possible to travel in a sustainable way? Is it possible to minimize your own CO2 emission without compromising the way of living and traveling that you want?
Autumn is here and many are going away for holidays and vacation. That’s why we have gathered some CO2 facts about traveling. What is actually the most sustainable way you can explore the world and is there any shortcuts for lowering our carbon footprint?
Are you electrified?
The CO2 emission of traveling with a car is related to the consumption of gasoline.
It’s more sustainable to choose electrified and hybrid vehicles.
Electrified cars = 0 gr. CO2 emission
Gasoline cars = 50 gr CO2 emission pr. km
Most sustainable way of flying?
Let’s face it. Planes are not sustainable, but they are convenient.
You can choose to go directly and pay a little bit more to save CO2 emission, rather than booking several flights to reach your destination.
Planes = 140 gr. CO2 emission pr. km
Are you in shape?
This one is more possible, if you are not going that far away.
Choose the bike to go visit your friends and family.
Bikes = 0 gr. CO2 emission pr. pedal step
Train traveling
Interrails and train rides are generally more sustainable when exploring our world.
The carbon footprint is lower than cars and planes pr. passenger pr. km.
Trains = 42 gr. CO2 emission pr. km.
