Semi-truck emissions consist of various pollutants, including carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), particulate matter (PM), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and sulfur dioxide (SO2). Improved fuel efficiency not only reduces the carbon footprint of semi-trucks but also translates into cost savings for trucking companies.

The state of our environment today is due to the broadening issues arising from loss of biodiversity, inappropriate means of disposing of waste , overpopulation, the depletion of natural resources, and increased deforestation. These affect natural habitats, produces acid rain and destroys the ozone layer because of global warming.

One study found that the daily employee commute is responsible for 98% of an employee’s work-related carbon footprint. You can also look to offset our organization’s emissions to reduce the carbon footprint of running data centers (plus other operations). To get to net zero, many companies are purchasing carbon offsets.

In response, NASA began positioning itself as an environmental authority, publicizing its new satellite technology that monitored the oceans, air pollution, and the ozone layer. In the 1980s, NASA’s satellite data and computer modeling helped scientists track ozone depletion and global warming. NASA / Joel Kowsky.
