This plugin calculates the distance you can travel (in different forms of transport) that emit the same amount of carbon as the input
units: the amount of functional units you want to look at. Maybe the amount of requests your api get per month or year (Optional, Default: 1)
metrical: the system to use for the distance output. Either miles or km. Default is km. (Optional, Default: true)
units: the amount of functional units you want to look at. Maybe the amount of requests your api get per month or year (Optional, Default: 1)
carbon: either the total carbon or the carbon per functional unit, in gCO2eq
distance/air: The distance in km / miles that can be traveled by plane that emits the same amount of carbon
distance/rail: The distance in km / miles that can be traveled by train that emits the same amount of carbon
distance/bus: The distance in km / miles that can be traveled by bus that emits the same amount of carbon
distance/large-car: The distance in km / miles that can be traveled by a large car that emits the same amount of carbon
distance/medium-car: The distance in km / miles that can be traveled by a medium car that emits the same amount of carbon
distance/motorcycle: The distance in km / miles that can be traveled by motorcycle that emits the same amount of carbon
Travel emits different g of carbon per km depending on the type of transportation:
- Plane: 122.72 g per km
- Train: 22.35 g per km
- Bus: 63.37 g per km
- Large car: 193.96 g per km
- Medium car: 144.65 g per km
- Motorcycle: 41.15 g per km
distance = (carbon * units) / emissions-per-km-of-transportation
