Australian Government Department of Infrastructure and Transport TNIP Transparent Noise Information Package CARBON COUNTER Carbon Footprint Analysis and Reporting Tool for Aircraft Operations USER MANUAL v3 0 June 2012 Preface TNIP Carbon Counter has been developed to enable rapid computations of the carbon footprint of aircraft operations The Department is faced with ongoing day to day requirements to compute these footprints The development of strategies for managing aviation s contribution to climate change needs to be underpinned by robust carbon footprinting Public confidence in action to address climate change is reliant on robust tracking and verification of carbon footprints Requests for carbon footprint data arising from aircraft operations are regularly received from a range of quarters such as other government departments research organisations industry academics and students Many tools for counting the average amount of carbon generated by specified city pair aviation journeys can be found on the internet However these commonly give quite divergent results for the same journey The International Civil Aviation Organization ICAO Carbon Calculator is now widely recognised as the accepted tool for providing this city pair information TNIP Carbon Counter is built on the same computational algorithms as the ICAO Carbon Calculator While individual city pair carbon information is very useful in
