CNRS, [IRAP](http://www.irap.omp.eu), [@DidierBarret](https://twitter.com/DidierBarret), [didier.barret@gmail.com](mailto:didier.barret@gmail.com) # Three blocks per section. # sections: # You can also use columns. columns: - blocks: - title: What does the tool do? content: | The tool computes the carbon footprint associated with round trip flights, according to the methodology of several publicly available calculators. It does so for a set of trips from a given city of origin to a set of destinations. Similarly, the tool allows to compute the carbon footprint of a larger set of trips, corresponding to a conference, a meeting and so on. For this, the city of departure for each participant to the event has first to be provided. If multiple destination cities are provided, the tool ranks those cities according to the associated carbon footprint. While online calculators enable to compute the footprint of a limited number of trips, this tool enables to compute the footprint of a larger number of trips in an automated way. Furthermore, it provides an estimate based on data from seven different methods, whose estimates can differ significantly. If more than one method is selected by the user, the tool returns the mean of the estimates of all selected methods. - title: How does the tool work? content: | A round trip is defined by a city pair. The two cities are geolocated and from their longitude and latitude, the great circle distance is computed. This is the shortest path a plane can follow. Some methods thus consider uplift correction factors to account for deviations from the shortest paths, e.g., when a plane avoids bad weather conditions. In addition, two cities may not be connected by a direct flight. This is accounted for by increasing by 5% the great circle distance. Each method provides the carbon dioxide emission in kg as a function of the flight distance in km. Thus from the increased great circle distance, the carbon dioxide emission of a flight associated with a trip between a city pair is computed and multiplied by two to account for a round trip. - title: Which methods are used? content: | The tool incorporates seven different methods, among the most widely used, and for which the methodology used is documented (see additional resources later). This tool is by no means a critical review of the different methods. It takes the methods as they are described and presented. The methods may differ in their assumptions (e.g. with or without radiative forcing included) or in the perimeter considered (e.g. adding to the flight emissions, the one associated with the production phase and transport of the kerosene). The tool attempts to implement each method to the highest possible level of accuracy. Providing more than one method enables to get a mean value, while illustrating the significant differences in their estimates. In alphabetic order, the data considered are from ADEME: the French Environment & Energy Management Agency, atmosfair: a German carbon offsetting company, DEFRA: the UK Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs, the French Ministry for the Ecological and Inclusive Transition, ICAO: International Civil Aviation Organization, from the KLM carbon compensation service data and finally from myclimate, a Carbon offseting company, used in particular by Lufthansa. _This list is obviously not exhaustive but represents a variety of estimates from lower to higher values._ - title: How are the different methods built? content: | What is needed for each method is a function giving the carbon dioxide emission as a function of the flight distance. ADEME and DEFRA provide mean emission factors, as a function of flight distance. Myclimate provides an analytical formula. For ICAO and atmosfair, the on-line calculators have been run for a wide range of flights of varying distances (~100 flights spanning from 300 km to 12000 km) and the estimates have been fitted with linear functions, covering adjacent distance intervals. For its carbon compensation service, KLM provides on its web site a table of emissions for a large range of flights. The KLM data have been also been fitted with linear functions. Differences up to a few tens of percent may be found between the data and the linearly interpolated values. - title: Accounting for non CO2 effects? slug: rfi content: | Aviation contributes to climate change more than just with the emission of Carbon dioxide from burning fuels, by releasing gases and particles directly into the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere where they have an impact on atmospheric composition. To quantify to total climate impact of burning fuels, the direct CO2 emission of aircrafts is then multiplied by a factor, which in the literature refers either to a Radiative Forcing Index (RFI) or a Global Warming Potential (GWP) integrated over some time period (a 100-year time horizon was adopted for the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change). There is a debate in the science community on how non-CO2 effects should be modelled. For instance, a RFI multiplier of 1.9–2 is used by DEFRA, and a multiplier of 2 is considered by myclimate and ADEME (see discussion in [Jungbluth, N. & Meili, C. Int J Life Cycle Assess (2019) 24: 404](https://doi.org/10.1007/s11367-018-1556-3).). ATMOSFAIR considers a multiplier of 3, for all emissions above 9 km, accounting for the profile of the flight. ICAO, KLM and the French Ministry for the Ecological and Inclusive Transition do not include a multiplier. Therefore, the methods based on ICAO, the French Ministry for the Ecological and Inclusive Transition and KLM data are not recommended, as they do not account for non-CO2 effects, but are still given as methods providing the lowest emissions. [![Models used](static/img/recap_scaling_laws.jpg)](static/img/recap_scaling_laws.jpg) - title: Seating category content: | The tool assumes economy seats in computing the travel footprint. On average it can be considered that the footprint can be multiplied by ∼ 1.5, ∼ 2.0 and ∼ 2.5 for flying in Premium Economy, Business and First class. - title: Accounting for train emission content: | The minimum distance for flying (one leg of the round trip) is an input to be selected by the user (it is set to 500 km by default). Below the minimum distance for flying, it is assumed that train is used. Deviations from the shortest path is accounted by a 1.35 multiplication factor. The tool thus assumes the mean of the emission factors of national and international rails, as provided by DEFRA (i.e. 23 grams per passenger km). To relate the duration of a train journey to a travel distance, an average speed of 100 km/h is assumed. - blocks: - title: Input and output data content: | The inputs are provided in US English for the city and country names, without diacritics. On each line, the city and country names must be separated by a comma. Pasting a CSV file in the form is possible, provided that a comma separates the city and country names. A round trip is defined by a city pair. If the user enters _cityA_ as the origin city, and twice _cityB_ as destinations, the tool returns the cumulative emission and distance from two round trips involving _cityA_ and _cityB_, and indicates that 2 round trips were involved. The same happens if the user enters twice _cityA_ as the city of origin and _cityB_ as the sole destination. Three types of inputs can be considered depending on whether the user wants an “individual” estimate or an estimate for a conference, meeting and so on. In the former case, the “origin” city is unique and the “destination” cities may be multiple. The tool returns the carbon dioxide equivalent emission for each city of destination. The tool can thus be run also for an organization interested to know about its travel footprint, in which case the "origin" city is the city from which employees travel. In the later case, the “origin” cities are multiple (i.e. the cities from which the participants to the conference depart from), and the “destination” city may be a single host city or multiple host cities if the user wants to compare their associated footprint. If there is one destination, the tool returns the carbon dioxide equivalent for each city of origin. If multiple destinations are provided the tool returns the carbon dioxide equivalent emission summed over all cities of origin and for each city of destination. The cumulative round trip distance to each city of destination is also provided. The result page provides a summary plot which can be downloaded, as well as a csv and raw yaml file, which can be used for further processing. The csv file lists the name of the city as in the form, the address to which it was geolocated, the carbon dioxide emission (in kg), the distance travelled, the number of trips possible by train (i.e. when the distance is less than the minimum flying distance, e.g. 500 km) and the number of trips by plane. The plot and the csv file rank the cities against the carbon dioxide emissions. - title: Trouble shooting content: | The estimation can go wrong if a city is not properly geolocated. This may happen because the name of the city is wrongly spelled or the geolocator (OpenStreetMap) is confused. An error should be listed at the end of the result page. Don’t be surprised, if the name recovered by the geolocator is not exactly the one you had expected (e.g. a city is located at the address of an embassy). An error may also occur if the input file submitted does not comply with the requested format, including font encoding. If nothing happens during a simple request, it is most likely caused by the geolocator being unavailable. In this case, try again a few minutes later. In case of very large many-to-many origin-to-destination combinations, the computing time may become very large. The advice is to split the inputs into parts. This may happen when comparing tens of thousands origins with hundreds of destinations. - title: Caveats content: | The numbers provided by the tool do not come with uncertainties, and shall only be considered indicative of the true emission. However, the numbers can be used for relative comparisons, e.g. when comparing two cities for hosting a conference. - title: Confidentiality content: | The data provided in the form will remain confidential, as will be the results. - title: Disclaimer content: | This tool is provided on a best effort basis as a service to members of the science community. The numbers provided are informative and have obviously no legal value. - title: Reference content: | Results from the tool may reference to [Barret (2020, Estimating, monitoring and minimizing the travel footprint associated with the development of the Athena X-ray Integral Field Unit, An on-line travel footprint calculator released to the science community, accepted for publication in Experimental Astronomy)](https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2020arXiv200405603B/abstract). - title: Original motivation content: | Global warming poses a threat for life on our planet. Emissions of carbon dioxide by aircrafts keeps increasing, as the world economy keeps growing (it is about 3% of the anthropogenic emissions nowadays). Carrying scientific research is generally associated with traveling across the world, and thus air travel is likely to dominate the carbon footprint of most scientists and is likely to be large for developing international projects. This tool was first developed to compute the travel footprint associated with the development of the X-ray Integral Field Unit to fly on board the Athena space observatory in the early 2030s. The rather large number derived, typically one hundred ton of carbon dioxide per bi-annual consortium meeting, imposed concrete actions to reduce the footprint of the project, by re-considering the number of large meetings, implementing different ways of interacting and working collectively in a world-wide consortium. The tool was further improved to easily compute the travel footprint associated with individual traveling or with the organization of events, involving a large number of travels. Finally, by comparing different, widely used methods, providing so different estimates, the tool is expected to raise awareness within the scientific community (and hopefully the authorities and medias) about the lack of regulations or framework on the critical matter of estimating aircraft emissions. - title: Concluding note content: | As a personal note, I would like to stress that, as a scientist, I find it very worrying that there are no standards for computing the flight emissions.
