This is equivalent to 0.26 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalents.
This sounds impossible, but it's proven technology. With a few simple modifications, you can turn your car into a WATER-burning hybrid vehicle. Help the environment with cleaner emissions from your exhaust, not to mention saving $4 a gallon for gas. Read more about how to reduce car emissions and run your car on water.
The total carbon emissions for a flight from MPI to IML is 567 lbs CO2.
This is equivalent to 257 kg CO2e or 0.26 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalents.
With radiative forcing in effect, the carbon emissions may increase by 2.7 times, so the CO2 equivalents would then be 1,530 pounds, equivalent to 694 kilograms or 0.69 metric tonnes.
These calculations are based on the distance from MPI to IML, which is 1,011 miles or 1,627 kilometers.
Your trip begins at Mariposa-Yosemite Airport in Mariposa, California.
It ends at Imperial Municipal Airport in Imperial, Nebraska.
This trip is a domestic flight. The calculation includes an assumption of a 65% load factor with 78 seats on the Dash-8 Q400 and 139 seats on the B737-400.
Are you flying the other direction? Check the reverse flight emissions from IML to MPI.
This site provides an online carbon emissions calculator to help you find the CO2 footprint of any flight. You can enter airports, cities, states, countries, or zip codes to compute the CO2 emissions between any two locations. The distance is calculated using a GPS-accurate method and the approximate carbon emissions are shown in pounds, kilograms, and metric tonnes. You can view the effects of radiative forcing and other variables on the measure of carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2e). Formulas are based on the UK DEFRA specifications for domestic, short haul, and long haul international flights. Carbon emissions due to airline travel can impact climate change, so it's important for us to look for eco-friendly ways to help the environment and leave a greener world for the next generation. You can do your part by learning how to go green--through recycling and conserving natural resources, promoting clean air and water, purchasing carbon offsets to reduce your personal footprint, and encouraging your company to take part in corporate sustainability.
