Sustainability Statement
Our Commitment to Sustainability
In today’s world, the transportation and logistics sector plays a significant role in global carbon emissions. At Freight Tasker, we recognise our responsibility to reduce our environmental impact and are committed to sustainability in freight forwarding.
Whether by optimising shipping routes, offering carbon-neutral options, or partnering with green logistics providers, we’re continually seeking ways to reduce the carbon footprint of our services. Our team works closely with you to make informed decisions about the environmental impact of your shipments.
How Our CO2 Calculator Works
Understanding the environmental cost of your shipments can be challenging. That’s where our CO2 Calculator comes in. By entering key shipment details—such as cargo weight, transport mode, and distance—our tool estimates the carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions generated by your freight.
Here’s what the calculator takes into account:
- Transport Mode: Different transportation methods, like air, sea, road, or rail, produce varying levels of emissions.
- Distance: The longer the shipment route, the greater the CO2 output.
- Cargo Weight: Heavier shipments often result in higher emissions due to increased energy demands.
Our CO2 calculator provides you with the knowledge to make greener decisions, whether you’re choosing a more sustainable shipping route or considering options to offset emissions.
Understanding Carbon Emissions in Freight
Did you know that the carbon emissions from freight transportation can vary dramatically depending on the transport mode you choose? For example:
- Air Freight produces the most CO2 per tonne-kilometre due to the high energy demand of aircraft.
- Sea Freight is much more efficient over long distances, though slower, with lower emissions.
- Road Freight emissions depend heavily on vehicle type and fuel used, while
- Rail Freight offers one of the lowest carbon footprints per tonne of cargo moved.
At Freight Tasker, we help you understand these differences and how they impact your shipment’s environmental footprint. Our goal is to guide you toward more sustainable choices wherever possible.
Choosing Green Shipping
