US class I railway updates carbon calculator
Norfolk Southern has launched the next generation carbon calculator. The railway company worked with logistic partners to ensure the calculations drawn between shipping via truck and rail sectors were accurate.
With the new system, users enter only the type of commodity they want to transport, shipment weight and frequency, and then choose from over 75,000 origins and destinations in USA.
The calculator then provides data on estimated and avoided emissions, carbon dollars saved, highway kilometres avoided, trucks and cars taken off the road, and other carbon equivalents. (ben)
