EVALUATION OF CARBON FOOTPRINT FROM TRANSPORTATION IN TURKEY

Year 2023, Volume: 6 Issue: 1, 34 - 37, 03.07.2023

Abstract

Today, approximately 95% of the energy consumed for transportation all over the world is met by engines using hydrocarbon fuels. Accordingly, approximately 20% of global greenhouse gases are produced by the combustion of fuels used in transportation. CO2, CH4 and N2O are the most important greenhouse gas emissions from transportation. The identification, monitoring, control and reduction of greenhouse gases from transportation have a significant impact on global climate change. In this study, the greenhouse gas emissions from transportation in Turkey were evaluated. For this purpose, greenhouse gas emissions measured between 1990-2019 were used. Emission values are taken from the data of the Turkish Statistical Institute (TUIK). CO2 emissions from transportation in Turkey have increased every year since 1990. CH4 emissions from transportation have increased since 2000 and have recently reached their highest values. N2O emissions from transportation showed a small increase, and followed a stagnant course for long years.
