Abstract

This study provides analyses of carbon footprint survey data from about 7500 respondents in the Nordics to present an overview of Nordic personal travel footprints. The study considers the spatial distribution of travel footprints, the influence of climate concern, and how the footprints fit within the 1.5-degree compatible threshold for 2030. Spatial variability from urban to rural areas differed from country to country. Low climate concern was linked to higher local and long-distance travel emissions. Travel footprints in all countries exceed the recommended threshold level, indicating a need for rapid action to reduce travel emissions in upcoming years. Moreover, there are indications that people who currently meet the threshold could belong to lower socio-economic groups, raising concern about meeting the travel needs of everyone. The study further highlights the context-dependence of the transport sector, even among countries with a similar background, which should be considered in mitigation policy.
北欧的旅行足迹
本研究分析了北欧约 7,500 名受访者的碳足迹调查数据,概述了北欧的个人旅行足迹。研究考虑了旅行足迹的空间分布、气候问题的影响,以及旅行足迹如何与 2030 年 1.5 摄氏度的兼容临界值相匹配。从城市到农村地区的空间变化因国家而异。低气候关注度与较高的本地和长途旅行排放有关。所有国家的旅行足迹都超过了建议的阈值水平,这表明需要在未来几年迅速采取行动减少旅行排放。此外,有迹象表明,目前达到阈值的人可能属于较低的社会经济群体,这引起了人们对满足每个人的旅行需求的关注。该研究进一步强调了交通部门的背景依赖性,即使在背景相似的国家之间也是如此,这一点应在减排政策中加以考虑。
