• CO₂ emissions from transportation (CO₂ emissions from transportation)
• CO₂ emissions from transportation (Japan)

We measured 1.12 million tons of CO₂ emissions from global transportation in fiscal 2007. Of these, transportation outside Japan accounted for 51% and domestic transportation 23%. Transportation by trucks accounted for 97% of total CO₂ emissions in Japan. In accordance with Japan's revised Energy Conservation Law, we tried more accurate data collection and calculation. An amount of CO₂ emissions from international logistics increased because of revision in calculation methods, from ton-kilo method to mileage and fuel consumption method.
   Meanwhile, an amount of overseas CO₂ emissions decreased due to a fluctuation of CO₂ emission factors for ships and aircrafts transportation.
