A common way to measure an individual\u2019s, object\u2019s, service\u2019s or product\u2019s impact on the environment is to calculate how much Carbon Dioxide emissions it produces, it is sometimes called your <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carbon Footprint<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have been digging into the data from various sources with the goal to develop a simple calculator to <\/span><b><i>*estimate<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the CO<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> impact of individual races.

Read on if you have interest in this. Feedback is always welcome &#8211; if you have an idea on how to improve it, a better source, or a reasoned methodology for change, we would love to hear from you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Transportation Emissions Associated With Races<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This was by far the easiest to quantify &#8211; using data from the GHG Emissions database it is easy to accurately and reliably assess the impact of every participant kilometer traveled to your race. The uncertainty comes in the estimation of how your participants get to your race. To get a good handle on this, we recommend a survey of your participants. This is best done at the race itself (as they pick up their bib numbers for instance or when they walk into the arena). Just two simple questions; How did you get here today? How far did you travel to get here? You could then extrapolate such data for next year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another method would be to estimate an \u2018upper\u2019 bound and \u2018lower\u2019 bound for your race. Important parameters to the calculation are number of participants and how they travel. So an upper bound would be the maximum number of participants, traveling the maximum distance\/time to your race. The lower bound is the minimum number of participants, traveling the minimum distance\/time to your race. Compare these two values to understand where the \u2018real\u2019 carbon emissions due to transportation will be.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is worth noting that unless you hold a super-local race, transportation will likely make up the majority of associated emissions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sources:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/ghgprotocol.org\/ghg-emissions-calculation-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/ghgprotocol.org\/ghg-emissions-calculation-tool<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iea.org\/fuels-and-technologies\/electricity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.iea.org\/fuels-and-technologies\/electricity<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Emission Estimations Based on Locality of the Race<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For regions and localities, data was collected about the surface area of each continent, then dividing this number by the number of \u2018significant\u2019 countries within the continent (we exclude very small nations). This created an average-surface-area-per-country in any given continent. For instance, in North America, we divided by 3, and in Europe we divided by 43. The square-root of this number thus gives the \u2018average\u2019 width or length, in a very crude estimate, of any given country within that region\/continent. This \u2018domestic distance\u2019 can then be used to calculate transportation costs of t-shirts, medals, food, etc within regions and locally within countries. We will say again, it is a very rough and crude estimate, but it sits within the error bounds we set ourselves &#8211; to get within one order of magnitude of the right answer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a side note, carbon emissions of various transportation systems are based on CO2 per passenger kilometer. When deciding on CO2 per medal kilometer, we assumed an average \u2018passenger\u2019 weighs 70kg (roughly accurate based on adult demographics globally) &#8211; and dividing by this to get CO2 per kg kilometer.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Emissions from Race T-Shirts<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Carbon Trust, a UK NGO, has produced a \u2018Clothing Report\u2019 which details the carbon emitted by different clothing types, and breaks it down into production, transportation and use. The report is from 2011, so likely the data is a little outdated and probably sits on the high side of estimates relative to t-shirt production nowadays. However, we considered this to be a conservative way of estimating, and hence considered ok. In any case within an order of magnitude of the \u2018correct\u2019 figure. A t-shirt was estimated to weigh 125g.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source:\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbontrust.com\/resources\/international-carbon-flows\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.carbontrust.com\/resources\/international-carbon-flows<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Emissions from Race Medals<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This was a more tricky estimation to make. We assumed that medals were made of zinc (most metal medals have a base material of zinc). Each medal was assumed to be 50g. The calculation is simply the carbon emissions for producing that amount of zinc. The ribbon and other things that make-up medals have been excluded as negligible. This probably produces a slight underestimate, and there are certainly medals that weigh more than 50g. In these cases, you should consider multiplying the figure by a small percentage. If your medal weighs 100g you could double the base cost &#8211; if 75g, you could multiply by 1.5, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source:\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2075-163X\/7\/9\/168\/pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2075-163X\/7\/9\/168\/pdf<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Emissions from Race Goodie Bags<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A favorite amongst many types of events, the goodie bag creates excitement amongst your competitors at bib-collection. For the small goodie bag, it was assumed that a PET water bottle and a number of printed leaflets and advertising was included. The medium and larger bags are 2x and 4x the smaller bag respectively. If you have significant items (food, etc), this can be estimated in the race food section or with additional appropriate factors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sources:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/npre.2009.3407.1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/npre.2009.3407.1<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/projectsites.vtt.fi\/sites\/leader\/www.vtt.fi\/sites\/leader\/en\/adv_leaflet_cf_2010.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/projectsites.vtt.fi\/sites\/leader\/www.vtt.fi\/sites\/leader\/en\/adv_leaflet_cf_2010.pdf<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Emissions Associated with the Race Arena<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Race Arena is a complex thing to calculate, each race arena is very specific and unique and a truly accurate assessment is impossible. Regardless, we endeavored to get a handle on an estimate for small, medium and large arenas. A small arena was assumed to be a few plastic signs, a few steel barriers and a roll of tape. Data for this calculation came from the UK Governments Report and Calculation Tool to assess carbon within a construction project. A medium arena was assumed to be 3 times the size (and thus carbon) of a small arena. A large arena was deemed to be around 2 times the size of a medium one. If anything, this could lead to an under-estimate of a newly purchased race arena &#8211; however, it is appropriate to assume some reuse of equipment and signage &#8211; which can account for and balance this underestimate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/carbon-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/carbon-tool<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Emissions from Race Timing Equipment<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A pen and paper were fairly easy to estimate based on a couple of sources. Even if this estimate is wildly inaccurate, it is so small as to not matter for the overall calculation. The Timing App is based one the electricity required to charge one mobile device. A conservative estimate of 20 Wh still gives a value that is around 5 times smaller than the pen and paper.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The chip timing equipment is far more difficult to estimate. Here we assumed that for the average race, of around 500 participants they would need \u201810 computers\u2019 worth of digital gear (approx. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1 laptop, 3 decoders, antennas, mats and tags)<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Converting the amount of timing gear into equivalent computers makes sense as a computer has a fairly well documented embodied carbon nowadays.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Obviously, large events will need to multiply this value up if they have lots of gear. An event with 5000 participants though is not the same as 10&#215;500 participants. There are economies of scale with timing equipment, so this should be considered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To calculate the carbon when reusing equipment, we assumed an average age of 15 re-uses. Obviously, some equipment has been reused a lot more &#8211; but there\u2019s also a lot of new equipment out there too. For a \u2018Timing Company\u2019, we estimated that they use gear more often, and estimate 10 times the amount of use relative to\u00a0 normally reusing. We therefore divide the carbon from the new equipment by the average age to estimate the carbon for reuse of timing equipment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sources:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/ethicalstationery.com\/its-just-a-pen-right\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/ethicalstationery.com\/its-just-a-pen-right\/<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/S0959652611004409\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/S0959652611004409<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ed.ac.uk\/files\/atoms\/files\/pc-carbonfootprints-jh-ecci2.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.ed.ac.uk\/files\/atoms\/files\/pc-carbonfootprints-jh-ecci2.pdf<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Food and Aid Station Emissions<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To get a handle on your after-race party and all the post-race bananas you are providing, we made an estimate of how much food each participant consumes for races with a couple of aid stations, races with multiple aid stations and races with after-run food. We started by finding data on CO2\/2000kcal for different diets, in different localities (the source of the data was a scientific study conducted in 2014 on diets in the UK). This data was then added to transportation depending on where the providence of the food came from. We then estimated how many calories are consumed by each type of event. With \u20181-2 Aid Stations\u2019\u2019 this was considered as 500kcal per participant, for \u2018Multiple Aid Stations\u2019 we assumed 1400kcal of consumption and for \u2018Aid Stations and After-run Food we assumed 2200kcal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/link.springer.com\/article\/10.1007\/s10584-014-1169-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/link.springer.com\/article\/10.1007\/s10584-014-1169-1<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tree Equivalent to Offset Emissions from Your Race<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How much CO2 does a<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> tree absorb?
