Abstract
The present technology provides a carbon calculator that determines the emission of a delivery service sub-product and reports the emission to a user. The sub-product emission is determined from emission data and known cost data for products and sub-products over a period of time. A set of emission data for a delivery service for a previous period is attributed to the cost of the products provided by the delivery service during the period. The emissions may be source specific, such as fuel usage. The cost may be based on product cost per cost segment, mail volume, mail weight, labor hours, and other cost measurements. Once the product cost is known, a sub-product cost is determined from the product cost. Emissions for delivery sub-products may be reported using an emission calculator. Delivery sub-product emissions may also be reported as a statement covering a period of time.
