The Carbon Footprint of Driving vs Flying
The carbon footprint of the flying accounts for nearly 2.5% of carbon dioxide emissions and the carbon footprint of the car is 4.6 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year. In addition to carbon dioxide, the harmful greenhouse gases produced by the car are methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O).
Regardless of your choice between driving and flying, try to reduce the impact on the environment. When you choose a car to travel it’s better to go with a hybrid or electric car and also don’t opt for cars that are old and also the ones with no maintenance. If you go with flight travel, opt for direct flights, and before choosing the flights check whether they use biofuels.
