Transportation is a critical aspect of modern society, enabling the movement of goods and people across the globe. However, the environmental impact of transportation has become a major concern in recent years, particularly with regard to greenhouse gas emissions and their contribution to climate change. As such, there is a growing need to understand and mitigate the impact of transportation on the environment. This study aims to investigate the impact of the carbon footprint (CF) in different means of transport. Specifically, the study will examine the greenhouse gas emissions associated with various modes of transportation and their industries, including aviation, automotive, railway, and nautical industries. By analyzing the carbon footprint of each industry, this study seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of them and identify opportunities for reducing their carbon footprint. By shedding light on the carbon footprint of different means of transport, this study will contribute to efforts to reduce emissions, promote sustainable transportation, and mitigate the impact of transportation on the environment.
