Abstract
One of the biggest causes of global warming is carbon dioxide emissions. Carbon dioxide emissions arise as a result of people's daily activities. Determining the causes and amounts of these emissions is extremely important for the world we live in. Within the scope of this study, the carbon emission value that occurs during the construction of a 1 km asphalt road was calculated. The data used during the calculations are the data obtained as a result of observation for 18 months. The data obtained was calculated by the Tier 1 method recommended by the IPCC.
As a result of the calculations, 210 tons of CO2 emissions were determined during the construction of the 1 km asphalt pavement road. This figure is approximately 32 times higher than the amount of CO2 that a person releases into the nature in a year as a result of his vital activities.
