KUALA LUMPUR, March 13 (Bernama) -- Nippon Express Holdings Inc has launched the “NX-GREEN Calculator”, a tool for calculating carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from international air, ocean, truck and rail transport.
The “NX-GREEN Calculator” calculates and visualises CO2 emissions from origin to destination when users simply enter the origin and destination of a shipment, the quantity and weight of goods being shipped, and the transport mode(s) involved.
According to a statement, meticulous calculations of distances between airports, ports and rail freight stations as well as between origins and destinations worldwide identified by city name or postal code allow for more precise estimates of CO2 emissions.
The service also enables users to calculate emissions for each leg of a complex transport route by specifying transit points and total emissions for multiple shipments based on transport data for a given period.
Accessible on Nippon Express Holdings’ website, the calculator will be offered in three languages namely Japanese, English and simplified Chinese for global use.
The Nippon Express Group has positioned "tackling climate change" as one of the material issues it must address in realising its long-term vision of becoming a logistics company with a strong presence in the global market.
It has also developed and released "One-Stop Navi" and "EcoTrans Navi” tools for visualising CO2 emissions from domestic transport.
The Group is offering this latest tool to encourage greater environmental, social and governance (ESG) management among its customers, supporting their efforts to reduce CO2 emissions by visualising CO2 emissions for international transport as well.
