Carbon footprint calculator for Malaysia green highway index

The large-scale transportation infrastructure construction in developing countries such as Malaysia requires emission estimation method for better calculation. The aim of this paper is to estimate the carbon footprint emission in the unit of ton of carbon dioxide equivalents (t CO2e/km-lane). This s...
