Carbon Footprinting (CF) is an important tool for reduction of CO2 and other Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions from freight transport and logistics. A properly implemented CF procedure provides for visibility of GHG emissions in supply and logistics chains, thus creating opportunities to understand emission reduction potentials and implement emission reduction measures. There are a number of carbon footprinting and carbon reporting tools and methodologies available, starting from the European standard EN 16258 and the EU FP7 COFRET project, which paved the ground for the calculation of carbon emissions in transport and logistics chains, to the mature programs and methodologies such as the GLEC Framework, SmartWay, Objectif CO2 and accounting tools like BigMile™. |
