Estimate the carbon footprint of air travel based on distance, seat class, and radiative forcing.

The Flight Emissions Calculator provides a precise way to estimate the environmental impact of aviation. By using tools like calculate_flight_impact, users can determine the total $\text{CO}_2\text{e}$ for any flight path. The engine accounts for distance, passenger class multipliers (Economy, Business, First), and the Radiative Forcing (RF) factor to capture both $\text{CO}_2$ and non-$\text{CO}_2$ effects at high altitudes. You can also use get_class_multipliers to understand how cabin configuration affects emissions or compare_rf_scenarios to analyze the impact of different altitude-based warming factors.

What is the carbon footprint for a 5000km flight in Business class?

The total estimated footprint for this flight is approximately 1250 kg of $\text{CO}_2\text{e}$, accounting for the Business class multiplier and standard radiative forcing.

How much more impact does a First class seat have compared to Economy?

Based on the multipliers, a First class seat has a significantly higher environmental impact due to its increased resource usage per passenger.

Compare 500kg of CO2 emissions with an RF factor of 1.9 versus 2.1.

Increasing the RF factor from 1.9 to 2.1 results in a percentage increase in total footprint and an additional impact of approximately 50 kg of $\text{CO}_2\text{e}$.

Use the `calculate_flight_impact` tool by providing the flight distance in kilometers, your travel class (e.g., Economy), and an optional radiative forcing factor.
