Brave the weather (or simply enjoy it if the conditions are good) and join us for Suunto Commuting Day on October 24, 2024!
Small, everyday choices are the beginning of change. One single commute may not seem like much, but over time, it all adds up. And when we look at the entire Suunto community, we can see that together we can make a bigger impact!
On Commuting Day, track your human-powered commute with your Suunto device and tag it as a commute. After the event, we'll calculate how much CO2e we saved together!
Tracking CO2e savings with the Suunto app is simple: ride, run, or walk from point A to point B and save your activity. The Suunto app can automatically tag one-way trips that start and end at least 500 meters (0.3 miles) apart as commutes. If you don’t have auto-tagging on, you can enable it in the Suunto app settings ('Settings' > 'Tags'). To manually tag your commutes, go to the activity, select 'Edit', 'Add tags', and choose 'Commute'.
The reduced CO2e emissions for a single activity will be shown in the workout summary. Your monthly total for CO2e savings can be viewed in the commuting widget on the app’s home page.
You don’t even need a Suunto watch or a Suunto-compatible Hammerhead bike computer to start tracking your human-powered commutes – you can also use the Suunto app for free. Download the Suunto app for iOS here or for Android here.

Calculating saved CO2e emissions
CO2e demonstrates the global warming potential (GWP) of all six greenhouse gases in one number. We calculate your emission reduction by comparing cycling, walking or running to driving your car.
About the calculation
CO2e (Carbon Dioxide Equivalent) emissions of travel by car (average of a petrol/diesel powered car). Emission factor: 0.166867 kg CO2e/km. CO2e demonstrates the global warming potential (GWP) of all six greenhouse gases: CO2, CH4, N2O, HFCs, PFCs, SF6, NF3 in one number. Data source: Govt of UK, Dept. of Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy, 2023.
