CO₂ Calculator
Carbon Footprint
How big is the carbon footprint of a vacation in the Uckermark?
A CO₂ calculator shows how much climate-damaging greenhouse gases are generated during a vacation and how they can be reduced. To do this, you enter information step by step about your travel arrangements, type of lodging, meals, and activities. The calculator then displays a personalized result. If desired, you can then support an environmental project in the Uckermark region. The CO₂ calculator can be used with just a few details and provides a rough estimate. The more accurate the information, the more accurate the result.
The small icons in the calculator provide tips for a more climate-friendly vacation in the Uckermark. Use of the calculator is anonymous and free of charge.
Important to know:
Travel is the biggest source of emissions.
For example, a trip from Cologne to Templin for two people produces 347 kg of CO₂ by car and 78 kg of CO₂ by train.Many outdoor activities produce little or no emissions. These include biking, hiking, canoeing, or simply relaxing by the lake—ideally right from your lodging.
People who vacation within their own country are already being significantly more climate-friendly than those who take a long-distance trip or a flight.
